Hello
When DHCPv6 is activated on an interface, I notice that radvd is started automatically to provide router advertisement with the managed flag, that's a good idea.
For each range a /64 prefix is advertised without the autonomous flag
but if I define several dhcp6 ranges inside the /64, the prefix is duplicated, it's a little bit strange !
For example, I use the DHCPv6 server and specify two ranges
[Range FC00::A000 through FC00::AFFF]
[Range FC00::F000 through FC00::FFFF]
In /etc/radvd.conf FC00::/64 is duplicated
prefix FC00:0:0:0:0:0:0:0/64
{
AdvOnLink on;
AdvAutonomous off;
AdvValidLifetime 2592000;
AdvPreferredLifetime 2592000;
};
prefix FC00:0:0:0:0:0:0:0/64
{
AdvOnLink on;
AdvAutonomous off;
AdvValidLifetime 2592000;
AdvPreferredLifetime 2592000;
};
In RA, the prefix is duplicated :
