Ok, I still have no joy adding an IPv6 route. Can anybody tell me what I
do wrong?
What I understand from the route(8) man page is that this command should
work:
route add -inet6 rtr2 rtrg -interface
Where rtr2 is the destination address and rtrg is my address on the
interface that rtr2 is connected to.
I have the following lines in my /etc/hosts file:
2001:4200:7000:15:202:6fff:fe22:9547 rtrg
2001:4200:7000:15:202:6fff:fe41:1927 rtr2
When I do the route add command the kernel prints this message:
nd6_rtrequest: bad gateway value: ath0
Ifconfig of the interface looks ok to me:
ifconfig ath0
ath0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::202:6fff:fe22:9547%ath0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3
inet6 2001:4200:7000:15:202:6fff:fe22:9547 prefixlen 64
inet6 2001:4200:7000:15:: prefixlen 64 anycast
ether 00:02:6f:22:95:47

status: associated
ssid koppiemesh channel 149 bssid 02:02:6f:22:95:47
authmode OPEN privacy OFF txpowmax 24 bmiss 7 burst bintval 100
After the route add, this new entry arrived in the routing table according
to:
netstat -rnf inet6
2001:4200:7000:15:202:6fff:fe41:1927 2001:4200:7000:15:202:6fff:fe22:9547 UHS
ath0
I looked with ndp -a, but nothing was added there.
Anybody got any ideas? This is the last part of getting olsrd to work
properly on FreeBSD using IPv6.
