https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=193488 Bug ID: 193488 Summary: [re] RTL8168F ignores incoming multicast packets Product: Base System Version: 10.0-RELEASE Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: Needs Triage Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: josh@greyage.org The RTL8168F ignores incoming multicast packets. This breaks SLAAC for IPv6 because router advertisements are multicast. The problem also affects minidlna (UPnP media server). While the interface is in PROMISC mode multicast packets are processed. This bug is very similar to Bug 125024 although on a different device. [1] Steps to reproduce: 1. Attach RTL8168F interface to network with working SLAAC-capable router. 2. Set up rc.conf according to handbook. [2] 3. Run "ifconfig re0" and note that only link-local address is set. 4. Run "tcpdump -i re0" and concurrently "rtsol re0". (This puts the device in promiscuous mode, allowing router advertisement to be received.) 5. Run "ifconfig re0" again and note that gloal address has been acquired.
