LAN routing issues
I am having some basic connectivity problems and I am curious if someone
could point out my error or if there is a problem in the 2.2.14 associated
with what I am trying to do. All interfaces respond to pings while on
console of the appropriate box and Node A is connected to the 6bone and
will respond to pings on eth0 and eth1. So, with that, I assume the basic
IPv6 configuration tasks are complete. Before I explain the problem, here
are the configurations, all IPv6 options are compiled into the kernels.
Node A:
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:60:08:1B:5D:13
inet addr:192.168.1.1 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::60:81b:5d13/10 Scope:Link
inet6 addr: 3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1:0:1/112 Scope:Global
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:672 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:1198 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
Interrupt:5 Base address:0x280
This is the inside interface to my gateway, this box is also doing the
tunneling. Here is the routing information for this box relating to eth1.
3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1::/112 fe80::60:81b:5d13
UG 1 17 0 eth1
3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1::/112 ::
UA 256 0 0 eth1
I added the gateway route as a testing procedure to see if it needed it,
but it didn't work. Currently, I have left it in there but I have tested
it without and it still doesn't work.
Node B:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 08:00:20:0C:FD:4F
inet addr:192.168.1.2 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::a00:20ff:fe0c:fd4f/10 Scope:Link
inet6 addr: 3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1:0:2/112 Scope:Global
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:4530 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:2386 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
Interrupt:5 Base address:0xd400
As you can see, they are on the same subnet. Here is the routing
information:
3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1::/112 fe80::a00:20ff:fe0c:fd4f
UG 1 111 0 eth0
3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1:0:2/112 ::
UA 256 0 0 eth0
Here, there a few differences, but I seem not to be able to get the first
node to add the route for 3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1:0:1/112 and I can't delete
3ffe:1ceb:0:2:10:1::/112 (no gateway address) without removing the
identifier from the interface. When I add the identifier, the route
returns.
During a ping test (pinging from Node B to Node A), Node 1's in packets
increase, but never sends a reply back. (information from /proc/net/snmp6)
Suggestions? Corrections?
Thanks.
