Title: radvd error
Post by: woosingwoo on February 14, 2011, 01:24:23 PM
Hi,

try to start the radvd service with the following error:
"radvd: no linklocal address configured for ppp0"

Any ideas on how to fix the issues?

Thanks,
Woo

Why are you trying to run RADVD on PPP0?

Radvd is used to advertise yourself as an IPv6 router on the local LAN. As such you should only need to run radvd on your LAN facing interface and not your WAN interface.

ppp0 is part of my LAN interface.

Yes, if you're using PPPoE it's going through the LAN interface, but you don't want RADVD to announce your LAN /64 through the ppp interface, but through the ethernet interface (eth0), where you should assign an address out of your LAN /64.

Thanks all, after putting the localhost address in the server option it is working fine now.

Thanks,
