What am I missing? Sorry, I was recalling this from memory without looking at the code. link-locals are always marked "permanent" global addresses added by hand are marked "permanent" global addresses added by auto-configuration are marked "dynamic" (/sbin/ip prints this if IFA_F_PERMANENT is not set) That way you can tell if they were added by the kernel or the user. -Brian _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
