Dear all, I'm using a tun interface with the IFF_BROADCAST | IFF_MULTICAST mode. I can use ifconfig to add an IPv4 or IPv6 address. So far so good. I'm running a program which gets all messages from a routing socket. When I'm adding an IPv4 address to the tun interfaces, I receive a RTM_NEWADDR routing message with the added address. However, I do NOT receive one, when I'm adding an IPv6 address. When deleting an IPv4 or IPv6 address, I do receive the corresponding RTM_DELADDR message. Does anyone know why I'm not receiving the RTM_NEWADDR when adding an IPv6 address to a tun interface? If it matters, the above is tested on head... Best regards Michael
