Title: IPv6 gateway monitoring problem - bug?
Post by: Perun on January 15, 2025, 08:59:20 AM

Hi all,

Since the last version, I've noticed a strange behavior in the monitoring of an IPv6 gateway. When I enable it, I see the following error:

Code Select

[meta sequenceId="3"] /usr/local/sbin/pluginctl: The command '/sbin/route add -host -'inet6' '2001:4860:4860::8888' 'fd00::52e6:36ff:fe01:3dca'' returned exit code '1', the output was 'add host 2001:4860:4860::8888: gateway fd00::52e6:36ff:fe01:3dca fib 0: Invalid argument'

However, I can manually set the route with:

Code Select

route add -host -inet6 2001:4860:4860::8888 gw fd00::52e6:36ff:fe01:3dca dev vlan0.0004and everything seems to work normally. But in the WebUI, the gateway is marked as orange at status, and when I hover over it, I get the message: "Misconfigured gateway IP".
Has anyone else experienced this behavior? I wanted to ask here before filing a bug report.

hmm, I think I see my mistake... I am using a ULA IPv6 address and should be using a Link Local address.
Where can I see the Link Local of a FritzBox?

this is the same as ULA just with fe80 at the beginning...
now everything is running as it should.

There is no bug :)
