Does it mean, that, someone'll need to reboot for renumbering or adding new net segment (for example, I want to add one more WiFi SSID on this router in future, for public access)? I don't like this idea. > Meanwhile, you need to tell us what version of FreeBSD you're using, as > IPv6 configuration is different in all 3 supported branches atm. 8.2-STABLE >> I've added to /etc/rc.conf: >> >> ipv6_enable="YES" >> ipv6_ifconfig_em0="2001:470:hhhh:1::1 prefixlen 64" >> ipv6_ifconfig_wlan0="2001:470:hhhh:2::1 prefixlen 64" > I hope that the hhhh here is a method of obfuscating the real addresses > for this message? Yes, of course. It is fragments of routable /48 prefix, allocated to me by Hurricane Electric. >> ipv6_defaultrouter="2001:470:xxxx:xxxx::2" # uplink >> rtadvd_enable="YES" >> rtadvd_interfaces="em0 wlan0" >> ipv6_gateway_enable="YES" >> >> and run >> >> /etc/rc.d/network_ipv6 start >> /etc/rc.d/rtadvd start >> Interfaces em0 and wlan0 now have static addresses, but not >> link-local automatic ones, and it seems, that rtadvd doesn't announce >> anything. > Check the ifconfig output.
