[Bug 1442095] [NEW] Network-manager network information display does not show SLAAC addresses

 

Public bug reported:

I have a network where my IPv6 address is auto-configured using SLAAC
(with privacy extensions). Everything works fine, but when I check the
Information panel from network-manager, it only includes the IPv4
addresses. Apparently IPv6 addresses were never picked up on? All it
shows is "IPv6" and then the dialog window ends.

The network info (partially redacted):

2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether [...]
    inet 192.168.1.6/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global eth0
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 2a02:[...]/64 scope global temporary dynamic 
       valid_lft 185909sec preferred_lft 71172sec
    inet6 2a02:[...]/64 scope global mngtmpaddr dynamic 
       valid_lft 185909sec preferred_lft 185909sec
