Hi all, I have some problems when using multicast addresses on the loopback interface : > ping6 -I lo ff02::1 connect: Network is unreachable On FreeBSD it works well : > ping6 -I lo0 ff02::1 PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) fe80::1%lo0 --> ff02::1 16 bytes from fe80::1%lo0, icmp_seq=0 hlim=64 time=0.188 ms This problem occurs with vanilla kernel and with the latest usagi-patch I supposed fixing multicast routes on the loopback should fix it, but it does not work either : > ip -f inet6 route add ff00::/8 dev lo > ip -f inet6 route show | grep ff00 ff00::/8 dev eth1 metric 256 expires 21325134sec mtu 1500 advmss 1440 metric 10 4294967295 ff00::/8 dev eth0 metric 256 expires 21325134sec mtu 1500 advmss 1440 metric 10 4294967295 unreachable ff00::/8 dev lo metric 1024 expires 21334349sec error -101 mtu 16436 advmss 16376 metric 10 4294967295 Does someone have a clue ? I am actually trying to run the latest version of wide-dhcpv6 on the loopback interface. -- Bruno STEVANT - Point6
