Note that DHCPv6 will by default be triggered by Router Advertisements, if reception is enabled, regardless of this parameter. By explicitly enabling DHCPv6 support here, the DHCPv6 client will be started in the mode specified by the WithoutRA= setting in the [DHCPv6] section, regardless of the presence of routers on the link, or what flags the routers pass. See IPv6AcceptRA=.

@hexa:lossy.networkhexayeah, if they send RA with other flag01:11:42
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa* yeah, if they send RA with managed or other flag01:11:53
@hexa:lossy.networkhexayou can try running rdisc6 against wan01:12:03
@hexa:lossy.networkhexato find out what their router advertisements send01:12:27
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa* to find out what their router advertisements are01:12:29

@hexa:lossy.networkhexamine says it offers stateful other config01:14:18
@hexa:lossy.networkhexarouter adverts are part of stateless autoconfig01:14:40
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaand dhcpv6 also has a stateless mode01:14:54
@hexa:lossy.networkhexabut stateful dhcpv6 means getting addresses on a lease01:15:04
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesi get 3 sections like that01:16:07
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles

they all look the same, here's the last one:

@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesthankfully there's no at-signs in this :^)01:17:30
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaso for some reason they announce two different ULA prefixes01:18:16
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaw/e01:18:21
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaL2-3 means it would autostart DHCPv6 when it got this router advertiseement01:18:44
@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
@charles:computer.surgeryCharlesah01:19:31
@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
@relichunter:nitro.chatrelichunter joined the room.02:44:08
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles

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
