Radvd announces the prefix to the local LAN, not back to the ISP. Nobody is talking about announcing anything "back" - Koenraad said :
Got a response from AVM (my modem/router is a Fritzbox 7490). It seems I have to announce routes also ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Ummm...
He was talking about announcing back to the WAN. That means back to the ISP. I don't know how you read it otherwise. Umm..., I just read his prose.
on the "WAN" side of my linux-router (so "internal" side of the modem/router). I don't see how I can paraphrase that to make it any clearer.
In this instance, there are 2 sides of a router, the LAN side and the WAN. LAN means the local network and WAN faces the ISP. He says he has to advertise to the WAN side. That means he has to send info back to the ISP. There is no other possible meaning of that. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
