As Vincent pointed out, you're probably hit by IPv6 Duplicate Address Detection (DAD). Unfortunately it also seems that Optimistic DAD does not work at this stage. This has nothing to do with HAProxy, it's the Linux kernel delaying to make the address available to userspace. If this is a 100% controllable environment, you can turn DAD off on the specified interface, with: pre-up echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/$IFACE/accept_dad It's dirty, but it should get you up and running without delays. I'm not suggesting you should do it, just make sure you understand the implications of this. In my view, the proper solution would be for ifupdown to wait for the address to become available (i.e. leave the tentative state). The only thing we can do is warn about this in README.Debian I guess. Regards, Apollon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
