[Lxc-users] IPv6 Stateless Autoconfig with radvd running on the lxc host

[Marc Haber]

Hi,

I am trying to use IPv6 Stateless Autoconfguration on a bridge between
the lxc host and the lxc guest with the radvd running on the host. My
setup is as follows:

The host has its eth0 connected to the Internet with both IPv6 and
IPv4 connectivity. There is a bridge interface where all lxc guests
are connected to:
   lxc.network.type = veth
   lxc.network.flags = up
   lxc.network.link = br0
   lxc.network.name = eth0
The host has an IPv6 /64 on br0 and is running a radvd service. For
IPv4 connectivity, an RFC1918 network is used and NATted by the host.

Stateless autoconfiguration does not work on my guests: I see the
router advertisements come in on the guest's eth0, but the kernel
doesn't react to it.

Is this an lxc limitation? How do I do IPv6 Stateless Autoconfig for
lxc guests?

Greetings
Marc
