@hexa:lossy.networkhexa* L2-3 means it would autostart DHCPv6 when it got this router advertisement01:18:46
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa* L2-3 mean it would autostart DHCPv6 when it got this router advertisement01:18:52
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesthose being the fd00 ones?01:18:53
@hexa:lossy.networkhexayeah01:18:57
@hexa:lossy.networkhexafc00::/7 is unique local addresses01:19:04
@hexa:lossy.networkhexakinda like private address space for ipv401:19:18

@astravoid:matrix.orgastravoid joined the room.01:19:44
@hexa:lossy.networkhexayou really can achieve a lot with just networkd01:20:47
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesseems that way01:21:06

hmm i'm getting

# ip route get $(dig AAAA google.com +short)
RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable

on the router machine again after rebooting it without any extra changes

03:00:47
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles
[root@green:~]# ip -6 route
2601:1c1:8400:a440::/64 dev br-lan proto kernel metric 256 expires 331268sec pref medium

fe80::/64 dev en-wan proto kernel metric 256 pref medium

this looks wrong, there's no non-ULA address for en-wan

03:08:34
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles

despite

2: en-wan: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000

@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesi'll try that03:10:33
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesyeah that was it, nice, thanks03:11:23
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesso now that i've got ipv6 addresses for my machines, are the non-privacy-extensions ones stable for use in AAAA records for public DNS records?03:17:28
@mjm:midna.devmjmdepends how stable your prefix from your isp is03:18:07
@charles:computer.surgeryCharleslet's assume that it is03:18:15
@mjm:midna.devmjmmine seems to change whenever they do non-trivial work03:18:18
@mjm:midna.devmjmif you've got one that seems to match your mac address, that one should be stable03:19:41
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles

so for this:

2: enp2s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 58:47:ca:71:7c:7d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    altname enx5847ca717c7d
    inet 192.168.0.10/24 metric 1024 brd 192.168.0.255 scope global dynamic enp2s0
       valid_lft 3147sec preferred_lft 3147sec
    inet6 2601:1c1:8400:a440:aed7:7fb7:8907:d07a/64 scope global temporary dynamic
       valid_lft 3172sec preferred_lft 1372sec
    inet6 2601:1c1:8400:a440:5a47:caff:fe71:7c7d/64 scope global dynamic mngtmpaddr noprefixroute
       valid_lft 3172sec preferred_lft 1372sec
    inet6 fe80::5a47:caff:fe71:7c7d/64 scope link proto kernel_ll
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

probably second inet6 line?

03:22:42
@mjm:midna.devmjmyes, that one03:23:04
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesah the words following the address are documented here: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/ip-address.8.html#DESCRIPTION03:24:33
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesmngtmpaddr seems to mean "this is the stable one"03:24:44
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesor, imply it03:25:03
@mjm:midna.devmjmthe lack of "temporary" as well03:25:29
