Hi folks, just noticed that for an IPv6-capable probe no gateway info/address is given. Curiousity - is there an "good reason" for that behaviour or is it just not implemented yet? Lowest prio, of course :-) Wilfried.
Wilfried, it is yet to be implemented. That is a simple answer. a bit more detail: it is half done. The probe send it and we haven't propagated it to the UI. a more complicated answer:) to kill your curiosity. IPv4 setup is rather simple. One gateway from dhcp or static configuration. V6 could be more than address and gateway. Initial version only red one IPv6 global address. Soon we ran into multiple v6 Global addresses and gateways. New versions send all addresses and routing table to the controllers. Also the gateways are often IPv6 link local address... here is an example. Actually this probe has 3 differnt prefixes/addresses. Destination Next HopF Flags Metric Ref Use Iface ::/0 fe80::1a0:c7ff:fe9f:11be UGDA 1024 39677 0 eth0 ::/0 fe80::1a1:c8ff:fe9f:15a9 UGDA 1024 0 0 eth0 also there are more complicated routing tables out there to parse. I guess eventually we will add it. However, decided UDM is more important! regards, -antony On Thu, Nov 24, 2011 at 06:37:10PM +0000, Wilfried Woeber, UniVie/ACOnet wrote:
