24.1 Production Series / Initial installer/setup: ipv6 gateway not set as "onlink"
« on: February 14, 2024, 01:45:34 pm »
Hello,
So this is a weird one (IMHO). I have a host at OVH with ipv6. However my ipv6 static ip address has a default gateway that isn't in the same /64 as my static ip block. The same happens with ipv4.
When configuring ipv4, the gatway is set as "onlink". However in ipv6 it is not, and the routing table (nestat -6 -rn in the shell) shows no default gateway after completing the setup.
Not sure if this is a bug or not...? Sure, it would be better to use link-local, but that is not what OVH is giving me/supporting.
Any comments/fixes appreciated.
