I noticed in /etc/networks in SuSE 9.1, there's an entry for the link-local address range: "link-local 169.254.0.0"
Does this mean that SuSE now supports link-local, as described at the location listed below?

I can't find any info about it for IPv4 in SuSE and there's very little mention of it for IPv6.
Search the archives for "Subnet 169.254.0.0" - it was discussed just a few days ago. Instructions are in the FAQ. I'd do the search and post a link, but text-mode web searches aren't as fun as you'd think.
I remember seeing that thread, but didn't pay attention to it. However, I've read the archives, but they didn't tell me much, that I didn't already know. I known, for quite some time, what link-local is. My question was if it's now supported in SuSE. And if so, how? tnx jk
