First, why are there two address with the first 4 fields being identical? The working system had only one.
Why you get a non link local address at all? DHCP, avahi ...? The usual case would be that you have nothing than one local fe80::/64 addess per NIC.
Hi Rudi
I'm certainly not a IPv6 expert,
Me neither :) BTW there is a really nice IPv6 certification program for free http://ipv6.he.net/certification/ It includes many multiple choice questionnaires and practical tests at different levels. It's real fun and instructive to progress that step by step.
but doesn't a host negotiate with the nearest router for non-link local addresses? There is dhcp, but IIRC it's only IPv4. Microsoft products and Apple don't work well with dhcpd-ipv6, IIRC.
I don't see why you get 2 global addresses within the same /64 net. Just mentioned that you should find out somehow where from you get them.
As you can see, the link-local address is malformed given the ipv6news information.
Should be: fe80::xxx:e8ff:fe08:00:43/64 Is: fe80::xxx:e8ff:fe08:43/64
Actually the "missing" 00 belongs to the last block so it should be fe80::xxx:e8ff:fe08:0043/64 which is the same as it is. cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
