IPv6 FIB frequent add/remove messages (dual-stack)
Hi,
I own a hosted dedicated server and my hosting provider just reported me my server is continuously removeing/adding entries to the FIB table of their router.
I checked my interfaces configuration, and restarted he network interface to be sure the right configuration was applied.
Here is the reported spam:
Dec 12 19:43:02.567: [base] 2A00:C70:1:213:246:aaa:bbb:0/128'0A FIB remove
Dec 12 19:43:03.283: [base] 2A00:C70:1:213:246:aaa:bbb:0/128'0A FIB add src
Dec 12 19:43:06.283: [base] 2A00:C70:1:213:246:aaa:bbb:0/128'0A FIB rem src
Dec 12 19:43:06.283: [base] 2A00:C70:1:213:246:aaa:bbb:0/128'0A FIB remove
Here is my interface configuration:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 213.246.aaa.bbb
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 213.246.aaa.255
network 213.246.aaa.0
gateway 213.246.aaa.1
iface eth0 inet6 static
address 2a00:c70:1:213:246:aaa:bbb:0
netmask 96
gateway 2a00:c70:1:213:246:aaa::1
The IPv6 configuration has been checked against the hoster guidelines and is correct.
One of the strange things is that the reported IP address mask is not the one I set up.
I also have some stuff running on top of my router, one the notable things is a DNS.
Would it be some IP-configuration related problem only or could the trouble come from some higher-level program?
I am not familiar at all with those routing tables and the IPv6 configuration trouble.
What am I doing wrong?
