PPPoE IPV6 interface edit

Hi!

OK, moved to forum.
adv_dhcp6_config_file_override is being set in working scenario because I use my own config.
In non working scenario the adv_dhcp6_config_file_override IS NOT SET and thus not working .CONF is used. -
Ah OK.
Then I am about out of ideas. I'll research this some more overnight. Thanks for all of your help so far :)
-
I can replicate it on my Hyper-v machine.
This is clean ALPHA install upgraded to BETA.
Vanilla. -
Progress…
If I deselect use ipv4 for connectivity then file is created as it should be but instead of "interface pppoe0 {" in conf there is "interface em3 {" which is not ok.
-
And all options in advanced config must not be enabled for this scenario to occur.
-
Produce config:
interface em3 { send ia-na 0; # request stateful address request domain-name-servers; request domain-name; script "/var/etc/dhcp6c_opt2_script.sh"; # we'd like some nameservers please }; id-assoc na 0 { };
See screenshots of config.
-
If I select "Only request an IPv6 prefix, do not request an IPv6 address" all of ia-na or ia-pd dissapear from conf.

OK, moved to forum.
adv_dhcp6_config_file_override is being set in working scenario because I use my own config.
In non working scenario the adv_dhcp6_config_file_override IS NOT SET and thus not working .CONF is used.The information posted in comment #15 of the bug reveals the reason for the non-working configuration. There should be a:
<adv_dhcp6_id_assoc_statement_prefix_enable>Selected</adv_dhcp6_id_assoc_statement_prefix_enable>
in the interface entry.Without that (which should be set by checking 'Prefix Delegation' in the "Advanced DHCP6 client configuration" section), DHCP6_Config_File_Advanced() will fail to generate the previously noted missing part of the configuration.
The <adv_dhcp6_config_file_override_path>…</adv_dhcp6_config_file_override_path> is redundant, but is ignored in the absence of <adv_dhcp6_config_file_override>yes</adv_dhcp6_config_file_override>.

Soooo its bug right?
-
In addition to all the problems every time I reboot machine my custom config /var/etc/working.conf is deleted.
Grrr :) -
Soooo its bug right?
If checking 'Prefix Delegation' in the "Advanced DHCP6 client configuration" section doesn't result in a working configuration, then it seems there is a bug. If checking that box is not enough, try clearing the custom configuration path first.
Monitoring the <interface>…</interface> entry in the configuration file (or using the technique in the last line of comment 13 in the bug) will allow you to monitor what is going on.
If you had merely failed to check 'Prefix Delegation', you had missed an essential part of the configuration.

nope everything is checked
-
Guys this one is easy to replicate.
I just installed latest 2.3 then checked config as in screenshot and it produces this file: /var/etc/dhcp6c_lan.conf
interface pppoe0 { request domain-name-servers; request domain-name; script "/var/etc/dhcp6c_lan_script.sh"; # we'd like some nameservers please };
So there is something very wrong with how interfaces.php or interfaces.inc generates this config file.
-
In my configuration I see:
<adv_dhcp6_id_assoc_statement_prefix_enable>yes</adv_dhcp6_id_assoc_statement_prefix_enable>
while David suggests it should be:
<adv_dhcp6_id_assoc_statement_prefix_enable>Selected</adv_dhcp6_id_assoc_statement_prefix_enable>
I can certainly change that.
-
Ummm ok what about .conf file?
Is it irrelevant what is there if in xml is correct? -
Then it looks like an error due to the GUI change?
Tomorrow I will make a CF with 2.3 and test it, I use a same config as you but with a /48 now on 2.2.6 no problem. -
I just pushed a change to make certain of the checkboxes have a value of "Selected" rather than "yes". In 2.2.x this was being done in Javascript and was missed when the file was converted.
Let's see if that helps.

Will test tomorrow. Thanks!
