Got a v7.6 ROS x86 box hosted somewhere and need to add IPv6. The address is static (say "2001:DB8::1/64"), but the gateway is dynamic and defined by a RA.
In Debian, this is achieved simply by the following /etc/network/interfaces:
Code: Select all
iface eth0 inet6 static
address 2001:DB8::1/64
The ROS documentation is a bit ambiguous - it doesn't explicitly say that this is possible, but it alludes to it. I've set the same static up in ROS and played with all the ND and ipv6 settings and can see the RA traffic arriving in a packet sniff, but I'm not getting an ipv6 gateway.
So, before I spend any more time on this, is what I want to do possible?
Thanks in advance,
Nicholas.
