I did not try using tcpdump to see if the IP6 advertisements are

I use wireshark and I see a Router advertisement coming in from the
router every 8 or 9 minutes. However my system is not using it,
otherwise I would have seen a Neighbour solicitation going out. Now I
only see a Neighbour solicitation coming in from the VirtualBox host.

Maybe you need something like this

ip -6 neigh add proxy ${IPV6_ADDR} dev eth0
ip -6 neigh add proxy ${IPV6_GATEWAY} dev ${TAP}

Where
IPV6_ADDR is the one from vm
IPV6_GATEWAY the host ip

I think somehow you can turn on global proxy rules per default. Could be
that this was the case in last milestone?

I did an installation of openSUSE 12.1 M3 in VirtualBox again and now I
immediately got 2 global IPv6 addresses, so it is unlikely to be a problem
in VirtualBox.

I compared all the settings in M3 and M5 in
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/{all,default,eth0}/* and they all match except for
the hop_limit of eth0, M3 contained 255 and M5 contained 64.

So should I file a bug report? I will see what it does on my laptop without
VirtualBox.

My laptop has an ethernet and wifi interface and both receive 2 global IPv6
addresses. Strange is that the wifi interface does not receive a IPv4 address
via DHCP4. I disabled DHCP6 for both interfaces. I entered a bug report for
the last problem.
