https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=254445 Lexi Winter <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #2 from Lexi Winter <[email protected]> --- since we don't enable IPv6 on interfaces by default, the only way a bridge can lose the IFDISABLED flag is if the user explicitly configured the system that way, in which case it doesn't make sense to me to not auto-configure link-local addresses in the same way as every other interface. so, i think we should remove this exception and handle bridges the same way as other interfaces. i suspect the original behaviour is related to the link-local address scope violation described in the "IPv6 support" section of the bridge(4) manual page, but since allow_llz_overlap is set to 0 by default, it would require explicit admin intervetion to end up with the broken configuration. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
