IPv6 (by specification) does not send any RS when an IP address or route expires. So only subtracting the supend time from the lifetimes and possibly expiring the routes/IP addresses won't fix the problem. When I move to a new network, I need to restart the autoconfiguration. This does not currently happen - neither for an alive system where the ethernet link goes down/up, nor for a system that gets suspended, moved and then resumed. -- Jiri Bohac <jbohac@...e.cz> SUSE Labs, SUSE CZ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
