    RT-AX86U Pro running 3006.102.4 dropping IPv6 ULA address

    I'm fine with the current behaviour of dhcpc-event now that I know about it, and agree it's better to accommodate as many use cases as possible with as few changes as possible. In my case, it was pretty easy to add a short sleep to the script for adding my ULA after the dust has settled. Still...

    RT-AX86U Pro running 3006.102.4 dropping IPv6 ULA address

    Thanks, I've enabled the debugging you mentioned (sorry I missed that), and it explains a lot about what's being renewed and why: Jul 3 07:18:17 odhcp6c[25089]: Starting RENEW transaction (timeout 180s, max rc 0) Jul 3 07:18:17 odhcp6c[25089]: Send RENEW message (elapsed 0ms, rc 0) Jul 3...

    RT-AX86U Pro running 3006.102.4 dropping IPv6 ULA address

    I ran nvram get ipv6_prefix_len_wan and it returned 56. I see WAN Prefix Size Requested:/56, Received:/56 in the syslog. It does think something is updated though. The log when the script runs is custom_script: Running /jffs/scripts/dhcpc-event (args: updated 6). It's not clear what is updated...

    RT-AX86U Pro running 3006.102.4 dropping IPv6 ULA address

    That is interesting. The prefix seems to have a lifetime of 600s, if I'm reading that correctly: PREFIXES=[prefix]/56,600,600,class=000b1ca0 The dhcpc-event script is being called every 5 minutes. For the most part, every second run re-adds the ULA, implying it was removed between 5 and 10...

    RT-AX86U Pro running 3006.102.4 dropping IPv6 ULA address

    I guess those SDN-related functions are something to do with Guest Network Pro (UI page is SDN.asp). I didn't have any guest networks set up. I've set one up now to see if it makes any difference, but it does not, the ULA still gets silently removed.

    RT-AX86U Pro running 3006.102.4 dropping IPv6 ULA address

    I've taken a bit of a look through these, and services.c in particular. In version 3004, the only functions that flush IPv6 global scope addresses are stop_ipv6 and stop_ipv6_tunnel. In the main branch, it's also in set_ip6_sdnaddr and _add_ip6_lansdnaddr. In both of those, it seems to flush...

    RT-AX86U Pro running 3006.102.4 dropping IPv6 ULA address

    Thanks for the suggestion. I could, perhaps, if it can deal with AiMesh, but I read somewhere it would probably need manual routing to be set up, and that's a whole lot of mess for something that worked properly before this update.

    RT-AX86U Pro running 3006.102.4 dropping IPv6 ULA address

    I use native IPv6, my ISP provides a static /64. I also use a ULA assigned to the router via 'dhcpc-event' script, together with a corresponding range of ULAs provided to LAN devices via 'dnsmasq-postconf' script, to help Pi-hole resolve local hostnames of IPv6 clients sensibly. After updating...

    Import own certificate from step-ca

    Hi, Asus RT-AC66U B1 running Merlin 386.14_2. I run my own CA using step-ca on my local network (primarily to access Pi-hole admin interfaces via HTTPS, mostly as a learning experience). I generated an end-entity certificate signed by the CA and I'm trying to import the private .key and public...

    RT-AC66U B1 386.2_4 - Native IPv6 stateful autoconfig gives clients a /128 subnet

    I run a dual-stack home network with two Piholes running DNS. The Asus RT-AC66U B1 still runs DHCP for the network. To get local DNS working (important for me), I have configured IPv6 with stateful autoconfig on the router and the Piholes are configured to do conditional forwarding of the...
