Hello all,
I have a Fedora Core 3 PC with a IPv6 Address.
I will ping now a IPv6 address in a other Segment/VLAN, so I must add a
route.
But this fails with "RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument" or "Error:
either "to" is duplicate, or "gw" is a garbage."
I tried following commands:
ip -6 route add '16::/16' via 51::f:1 dev eth0
ip -6 route add '16::/16' via 51::f:1
ip -6 route add '16::/16' gw 51::f:1 dev eth0
ip -6 route add '16::/16' gw 51::f:1
With
ip -6 route add '16::/16' dev eth0
it is working, but when I make
ping6 16::f:1
he always used the loop-back Interface and not the eth0.
Do you know, were the problem is??
Thanks.
bye,
Nobsi
