fe80::1 is the router, it's quite a common address to use. See for instance:
That use is for default route redundancy, where the routers are assigned a virtual address, which 2 or more routers can respond to. Typically one does all the work, with the other on standby, ready to take over when the first fails. Read up on HSRP and VRRP for more info. Are you setting up redundant paths?
Not at the moment, but afaict it matters not. Assigning fe80::1 to each router means not having to fiddle with the actual link-local address. Anyway, it works fine, except YaST can't assign static ipv6 routes. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (4.6°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
