Hi maybe some can help me with some ipv6 question, for some reason my dhcp agent spams the log all the time with such messages: "/sbin/dhcpagent[630]: [ID 577356 daemon.error] plumb_lif: SIOCSLIFFLAGS e1000g0:1: File exists" also ipadm shows such a strange addrobj "e1000g0/? static ok fe80::226:2dff:fefb:425b%e1000g0/10"

EisNerd_ do you have network/physical:nwam enabled?

tsoome: no

physical:default?

yes

do you have leftover /etc/hostname* files?

e1000g0/? is usually appearing when "manual" address is created (that is, ifconfig was run either from command line or via hostname.ifname/hostname6.ifname files)

yes I had such

how to cleanup?

restart physical

as I can't delete it using ipadm for some reason

EisNerd_: ifconfig e1000g0 unplumb will sometimes do the trick

It is it seems a problem with illumos (global zone, SmartOS) DHCP client

If DHCP server returns first and second gateway and first and second DNS server, then illumos global zone in Smartos, sometimes would choose first path and sometimes the second path, hurting intended effect of first path and DNS server to be used first and only second if first is not available

Obviously it would work by setting default gateway in the OS, but unlike in Linux, DHCP doesn't see first gateway as first default for traffic

could the ip route metric be set to one for the first and 2 for the second default route?

tomww, meaning on smartos. I have a problem during install, will see after install

EisNerd_: Any time things get stuck in a way you can't fix them with ipadm(8) it's definitely a bug that we should get filed and fixed

nikolam: What does it mean to have DHCP provide two gateways?

Do you mean you're providing two different DHCP option 3 IP addresses to the client?
