 hexa | because networkd will not generally set up "link-local" IPv4 addresses (APIPA) | 00:52:40 |
 kdn | riight, I don't have DHCPv6 server set up yet on the lan | 00:53:43 |
| hexa | and you probably don't want or need one | 00:53:58 |
| kdn | shouldn't I still get a DHCPv4 lease even if the DHCPv4 failed? | 00:55:25 |
| kdn | what I'm seeing right now that lan interface is simply down | 00:55:34 |
| kdn | * shouldn't I still get a DHCPv4 lease even if the DHCPv6 failed? | 00:55:54 |
| hexa | it should only be down if networkd has no match block for it | 00:56:27 |
| hexa | * it should only be down if networkd has no match block in a network conifg for it | 00:56:35 |
| hexa | * it should only be down if networkd has no match block in a network config for it | 00:56:41 |
| hexa | I'm not sure BindCarrier is super useful | 00:56:49 |
| hexa | if the four links are down, then the lan link will be down anyway | 00:57:11 |
| kdn | the four links are up | 00:57:25 |
| hexa | yeah, I'm saying the BindCarrier= config is redundant | 00:57:41 |
| kdn | so BindCarriers= is equivalent to the Bond on the other side? | 00:58:50 |
| kdn | * so BindCarriers= is equivalent to the Bond= on the other side? | 00:58:55 |
| kdn | * so BindCarrier= is equivalent to the Bond= on the other side? | 00:59:04 |
| hexa | you don't need an equivalent | 00:59:08 |
| hexa | you define a bond, various interfaces join the bond | 00:59:22 |
| hexa | all that happens in netdevs | 00:59:26 |
| kdn | I don't think I have a netdev for the children interfaces | 00:59:59 |
| hexa | can you show /proc/net/bonding/lan? | 01:00:57 |
| kdn | oh, that's a lot of info, I guess you'd want to see it before I run networkctl up lan? | 01:02:04 |
| hexa | yeah | 01:02:15 |
 emily | SLAAC is all you need | 01:03:16 |
| kdn | I can post a screenshot of what seems like ~1.5 of the interfaces config | 01:03:18 |
| kdn | 
Download image.png | 01:04:05 |
| kdn | actually, there is a lot less before it's up | 01:04:15 |
| hexa | the slave interfaces are donw? | 01:04:27 |
| hexa | * the slave interfaces are down | 01:04:29 |
| hexa | ip link? | 01:04:33 |
