[Bug 1512509] [NEW] slaac via pppoe fails with sif6addr failed

 

Public bug reported:

trying to configure ppp0 via SLAAC by adding

+ipv6
ipv6 ,::3

and increasing the debug level, i find in the logs:

Nov  2 23:03:37 zotac01 pppd[3796]: cif6addr: ioctl(SIOCDIFADDR): No such address
Nov  2 23:03:37 zotac01 pppd[3796]: sif6addr: ioctl(SIOCADDRT): File exists (line 2607)
Nov  2 23:03:37 zotac01 pppd[3796]: sif6addr failed
Nov  2 23:03:37 zotac01 pppd[3796]: sent [IPV6CP TermReq id=0x2 "Interface configuration failed"]

ppp0 has two ipv6 ips, both local,
old ip remains linked
no default route is received
several IPV6CP ConfReq appear in the log not changing any parametr of the link
a further configuration of the interface via dhcp is not possible because the interface never becomes able to transmit ipv6 packages.
