From: Mike Makonnen To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, goto@snowy.to Cc: Subject: Re: conf/74817: [patch] network.subr: fixed automatic configuration of multiple I/F in IPv6 environment Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2008 16:57:51 +0300 I believe the current behaviour is the correct one. From the BUGS section of the rtsol(8) man page: The IPv6 autoconfiguration specification assumes a single-interface host. You may see kernel error messages if you try to autoconfigure a host with multiple interfaces. Also, it seems contradictory for rtsold to accept multiple interface arguments.
