From 4f72427998b105392e60bae7a6798a0c96fe4f0a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jean-Mickael Guerin Date: Wed, 20 May 2009 17:38:59 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] IPv6: set RTPROT_KERNEL to initial route The use of unspecified protocol in IPv6 initial route prevents quagga to install IPv6 default route: # show ipv6 route S ::/0 [1/0] via fe80::1, eth1_0 K>* ::/0 is directly connected, lo, rej C>* ::1/128 is directly connected, lo C>* fe80::/64 is directly connected, eth1_0 # ip -6 route fe80::/64 dev eth1_0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit -1 ff00::/8 dev eth1_0 metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit -1 unreachable default dev lo proto none metric -1 error -101 hoplimit 255 The attached patch ensures RTPROT_KERNEL to the default initial route and fixes the problem for quagga. This is similar to "ipv6: protocol for address routes" f410a1fba7afa79d2992620e874a343fdba28332. # show ipv6 route S>* ::/0 [1/0] via fe80::1, eth1_0 C>* ::1/128 is directly connected, lo C>* fe80::/64 is directly connected, eth1_0 # ip -6 route fe80::/64 dev eth1_0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit -1 fe80::/64 dev eth1_0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit -1 ff00::/8 dev eth1_0 metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit -1 default via fe80::1 dev eth1_0 proto zebra metric 1024 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit -1 unreachable default dev lo proto kernel metric -1 error -101 hoplimit 255 Signed-off-by: Jean-Mickael Guerin Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
