Both interfaces are connected to different switches. I have been deleted all ipv6 entries in /etc/rc.conf and rebooted the host. why the ifconfig shows ipv6 address on em1 like this: --------------- em0: flags=8843 metric 0 mtu 1500 options=209b ether 00:30:48:30:39:d8 inet 202.249.25.27 netmask 0xffffffe0 broadcast 202.249.25.31 inet6 fe80::230:48ff:fe30:39d8%em0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 nd6 options=29 media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT ) status: active em1: flags=8843 metric 0 mtu 1500 options=209b ether 00:30:48:30:39:d9 inet6 2001:d30:101:5:230:48ff:fe30:39d9 prefixlen 64 inet6 fe80::230:48ff:fe30:39d9%em1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 nd6 options=21 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX ) status: active ----------------- sysctl shows: net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv: 0 ----------------- how come em1 has ipv6 address? it is very strange. any idea, how to debug/fix this?
