|

Hello,
since a few days, I suddenly have problems with my internal IPv6 traffic. I set up dhcp6 via dibbler quite a time ago since I wanted to have local IPv6 addresses with dynamic DNS. My server has a static address in the ULA range (fd00::/ and provides other clients with addresses in the same subnet.
This whole process worked quite fine until a few days ago. The addresses are still being given, but I can't connect between my clients/server via local IPv6 ULA at all... Name resolution works, addresses are given but trying to connect just times out (no matter from/to which machine).
I already checked ip6tables, but the ULA range is being whitelisted. I also tried to check route -6, but unfortunately, I don't exactly know how it SHOULD look like... In route -6, the local address itself is being listed and not a whole network/prefix.
Using the link local addresses works and internet via IPv6 also has no problems. Only ULA...
I may have broken something, when I accidently started dhcpcd (so the DHCP client) on my server while wanting to restart dhcpd. That really mixed up things for a short while (minutes), but after I fixed that, internal IPv6 traffic worked for a few days.
Any ideas what the problem could be or what I could check? _________________ AMD Ryzen 5900X

Okay... Already an update. I thought I already tried this.
I've now manually added a static route Code: | route -6 add fc00::/7 ethX | on both server and client and now the connection works again... I think I only tried it on one of both machines before, so that could be why it did not work before...
But why should I suddenly have to add this route manually? I did not change any network config in the last days... Only my little fauxpas with the DHCP client on my server... _________________ AMD Ryzen 5900X
