Static IPv6 route does not work after upgrade to 2.5

4920441 0

Hi,

under System/Routing/Static Routes I have added two static IPv6 routes through another interface.
Both worked until I upgraded.

But after the upgrade, the route is shown in the webinterface, but when issueing a

netstat -r

the IPv6 targets are not even shown, though the route is ignored as well, if it is not even in the local table.

Despite that, all Interface routes are shown flawlessly and even the routes which are set by the gateway monitor IP is listed as well when quering netstat -r - only the manually set static route is missing.

Both routes are set to a 'dynamic' gateway which is configured by the 'Interfacename_DHCPv6 - dynamic' variable.

Releasing/Renewing the Lease works, but the routing problem persists anyway, so it does not seem to be any kind of race condition.

Any thoughts?

Cheers

Hi, yes, seems to be pretty much exactly the same.

Sometimes I ask myself if netgates quality crontrol takes a week off before releasing... I mean - IPv6 static routes, complex changes and bugs in handling of the ipsec connectsions.... these are mandatory things, and I don't think the issues are only related to the community edition, or are they?
