I am currently trying to setup static ipv6 address with a persistent default gateway. This is on a Solaris 10 non global zone running inside a Solaris 10 global zone. My production server I am comparing against is a Solaris 10 xen instance running on a Oracle Solaris xen instance.
I have got it working but not as intended. I am dont understand why when i plumb the interface and it comes online with the assigned ip that it also created another 2 interfaces igb1:2 and igb1:3. Why does this happen?
I thought that was the job of ndp to stop auto configuration. My /etc/inet/ndpd.conf file with 644 perms.
Here are the steps I have performed in the following order.
1. created ndpd.conf file with above configuration.
2. Enabled ndp "svcadm enable ndp"
3. vi /etc/hostname6.igb1 to include the below config
addif x:y:z:1001::41/64 up
4. ifconfig igb1 inet6 plumb
5. ifconfig igb1:1 inet6 plumb
6. ifconfig igb1:1 inet6 x:y:z:1001::40/64 up
below is my ifconfig output
Code:
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
igb1: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
inet x.y.z.41 netmask ffffff00 broadcast x.y.z.255
ether 0:21:28:75:dc:1
lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1
inet6 ::1/128
igb1: flags=2000841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2
inet6 fe80::221:28ff:fe75:dc01/10
ether 0:21:28:75:dc:1
igb1:1: flags=2000841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2
inet6 x:y:z:1001::41/64
igb1:2: flags=20a0841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,NOLOCAL,ADDRCONF,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2
inet6 subnet x:y:z:1001::/64
igb1:3: flags=20a0841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,NOLOCAL,ADDRCONF,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2
inet6 subnet x:y:z:1001::/64
We have this implemeneted on a production server. However, that server does not show they igb1:2 and igb1:3 interfaces. I can ping the gateway and the default route. I just dont think the :2, :3 interfaces should show up.

Hello guyz..

thanx.. (2 Replies)
I am trying to capture the ipv6 packets through pcap utility.
For that i am redirecting the ipv6 packets to the loopback address , but the ipv6 packets are not getting redirected to tha loopback address.Instead they are taking there normal routes. (1 Reply)
Hello,
I was wondering if it would be possible to run two VMs one with services for IPv4 and the other one with services for IPv6. The main physical system would be connected to a IPv6 switch.
I think it should be fine but I would like to hear out your comments. (1 Reply)
my problem: i want to change from ipv4 to ipv6 on my home network.
On hpux i can assign only address non routable as fe80::1 fe80::3 etc to my lan0
Editing netconf-ipv6 i can assing a routable ipv6 address like
fd55:282f:3b98::/48
or
2001:470:26:307:89a0:aba1:f98b:eb3e
but only to alias... (0 Replies)

I am trying to setup an IPv6 network.
I modified the interfaces file:
