(usagi-users 03152) Radvd sender accepts own RAs...

["Tobias Hof" <Tobias.Hof@xxxxxx>]

Hi,

I've once again a question concerning radvd.

I have a PC with 2 network interfaces, on one of them it is a radvd client,
on the other it shall act as a radvd router for the connected subnetwork.
Furthermore, I have the Mobile IPv6 daemon from the University of Helsinki
running on running the PC. That's why I'm running a 2.6.8.1 kernel wih the
corresponding patch.

The first interface is very well configured as a client interface.

The problem I have is that when I activate radvd on the second interface, it
creates a default route to its own link-local address, where all arriving
packets are routed to... :-(   I.e. it accepts and parses its own RAs. At
the beginning, the interface also created a stateless address for itself,
but then I set eth1/autoconf to 0 and this problem was solved. However, the
new route seems to be the bigger problem... Is there any similar variable
(accept_ra, accept_redirect, ...) that could solve my problem? I tried a lot
of combinations and settings (perhaps not all of them), but nothing worked
so far. Has anybody ever has this kind of problem?

When the Mobile IP daemon is not running everything goes fine.

I would greatly appreciate any answer or hint!

Tobias
