IPv6: Host Interface RA (Router Advertisement) Surpression Missing?
-
I've run into what appears to be a missing command line configuration item, but wanted to see if there's a way to do this via proper TNSR CLI commands.
- GOAL: Disable any Host Interface RAs from being processed
- This includes creating IPv6 Addresses and/or Routes
- ISSUE: RAs come in and apply IPv6 Addrs / Routes on host interfaces
- no configuration options appear present in docs or the CLI to surpress RAs
- NON-PERSISTENT FULL WORKAROUND: applying
accept_ra: false
to the proper section of/etc/netplan/50-tnsr-host-interfaces.yaml
temporarily works to suppress RAs- but as expected, any reboots or changes to Host Interface configuration in the TNSR CLI blow this away
- UNACCEPTABLE HACK WORKAROUND: set a more specific route for source client subnets to take a different route versus the default
How can RAs be suppressed in a supported, persistent way? In my situation, they conflict with routes required for SSH connectivity to manage these hosts.
