[2.4.] [IPv6] can auto negotiation be re-triggered after network configuration

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have a laptop which travels around in suspend mode. When it is
connected to a network with running radvd after the network is
configured (eth0 up) it does not accept the prefix advertisements of
radvd and therefore does not get an address from the announced address
range.

I alrady tried to do "ifconfig down eth0" and even to rmmod my NIC's
module but no new address here.

rmmoding ipv6 yielded a "Device or resource busy" error.

Any ideas on how to force again auto configuration? (my Kernel is a
2.4.26, woody-proposed-updates).


TIA,



Sebastian
