Run radvd on your network, using some fc00 prefix. That'll allow such devices to auto-configure and you won't need the old firefox.
Is that some dhcp alike for version 6?
radvd is a router advertisement daemon, every router has one. If you run it on a non-router, it'll also work.
I'm sorry, no idea what that thing does. My router has it, apparently configured by the ISP, but no idea what it does.
You still have the problem of finding out what IP is the device at.
Yes. Given the right setup, that can be solved with dynamic dns updates.
Apparently, my router does not do it for IPv6. What I have found today is "ip neighbour show". It does not show my printer IPv6 address, though, it shows other fe80's.
With IPv4 I can use nmap to scan my entire network to find it. Good look with scanning the IPv6 LAN in a reasonable time.
You do a "ping6 ff02::1%eth0" and replace "fe80::" with your prefix.
Is that a broadcast, or pinging a single host? I don't understand how I can use that to find a particular device of unknown address. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
