16:50:21 <sommerfeld> jaap: I have work in progress patches to finish IPv6 support in ippool.   It's been working for me for a while

16:53:03 <fenix> → CODE REVIEW 3808: 16843 IPv6 addresses in ippool should work (NEW) | https://www.illumos.org/issues/16843
16:54:04 <sommerfeld> has one functional regression (only does /N prefixlen instead of /XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX netmask) which is why I haven't pushed it for review.
19:06:45 <jaap> sommerfeld: that's awesome! nice work
19:07:11 <jaap> sommerfeld: wat this ported from FreeBSD? I noticed in the man pages for BSD ippool that IPv6 is supported
19:08:29 <jaap> Not in a rush but this is actually gonna make a difference to me. Ideally I'd invest in learning illumos as my platform of choice, but I'm still in doubt for a couple of reasons
19:08:35 <jaap> IPv6 feature parity was/is one
19:08:51 <jaap> The other is a "proper" routing daemon like Free Range Routing or at least Bird
19:09:49 <jaap> That bit could be worked around in a zone running a different OS I guess, but I was thinking to do some plumbing in a global zone with a routing daemon that has awareness of other zones status
19:10:33 <jaap> I'd like to have a routing daemon that advertises /32's and /128's on zones to the rest if the network, only if those zones are up
21:46:14 <sommerfeld> jaap: no, was my own patch to what's in illumos-gate
21:47:21 <sommerfeld> the kernel part of ippool ipv6 support was already present -- it was just missing the userland CLI.
