Package: iproute Version: 20080725-2 Severity: normal The src option used in a 'ip -6 route add' command is ignored ; and normal RFC 3484 default address selection is computed.
Steps to reproduce: 0. An IPv6-aware network has to be available, with an <ipv6 dev> device having multiple IPv6 addresses configured (ip -6 addr add .. dev <ipv6 dev>) 1. ip -6 route add <dest network> src <desired v6 address> <ipv6 dev> 2. attempt to reach <dest network> will be done using the default RFC 3484 address, NOT the <desired v6 address> one If my understanding is correct, the src address should be used after routing is established, with a greater priority than RFC 3484 default address selection. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.5 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.34.4-grsec (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: lang=fr_fr.ut...@euro, lc_ctype=fr_fr.ut...@euro (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages iproute depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdb4.6 4.6.21-11 Berkeley v4.6 Database Libraries [ Versions of packages iproute recommends: ii libatm1 2.4.1-17.2 shared library for ATM (Asynchrono Versions of packages iproute suggests: pn iproute-doc <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
