I am seeing a problem where the IPv6 default on a number of systems
that use RA to get it is going away on a regular basis. CeroWrt 3.8 is
the source of RA and IPv6 default routes everywhere. A /48 is delegated
(manually) from my ISP, and configured for each subnet.
There is no way that I can see to specify or find out what the lifetime
/ frequency of the RAs are in the UI. In /etc/config/6relayd, I see:
config server 'default'
option rd 'server'
option compat_ula '1'
option always_assume_default '1'
option fallback_relay 'ndp'
list network 'VoIP'
list network 'gw00'
list network 'gw01'
list network 'gw10'
list network 'gw11'
list network 'se00'
list network 'services'
list network 'sw00'
list network 'sw10'
list network 'trusted'
It is my understanding that 6relayd is responsible for sending out RAs.
On my desktop:
obiwan-[~] mcr 10187 %sudo rdisc6 eth0
Soliciting ff02::2 (ff02::2) on eth0...
Hop limit : undefined ( 0x00)
Stateful address conf. : Yes
Stateful other conf. : Yes
Router preference : medium
Router lifetime : 1800 (0x00000708) seconds
Reachable time : unspecified (0x00000000)
Retransmit time : unspecified (0x00000000)
Source link-layer address: 76:44:01:76:5D:CC
MTU : 1500 bytes (valid)
from fe80::7444:1ff:fe76:5dcc
(5dcc is indeed my CeroWRT)
while the router lifetime given is 30 minutes, I am wondering if
something else is up. I would have thought I'd see a prefix advertised
here.
As my MP3 streamer one of the machines affected, when it loses it's IP,
it either falls off of NFS or the TCP stream breaks, and things go
quiet.
I've ssh'ed into my MP3 server (over v4), and I'm running:
watch ip -6 route ls
and sudo tcpdump -i eth0 -n -p ip6 and icmp6
in two windows.

There is kind of a conflict on RA handling between dnsmasq and 6relayd
going on - back in january, dnsmasq was "winning", and the default. Since
then the 6relayd stuff has evolved something considerable, and I have not
looked into changing things around, nor how they should be changed around.
Try disabling dnsmasq's RA handling.

okay. deleted "enable-ra" from /etc/dnsmasq.conf
/etc/rc.d/S60dnsmasq restart
takes along time... finally finished.
