wide-dhcpv6 - trying to obtain /60 prefix, "invalid prefix"
 
my ISP is comcast, who is now giving all its customers /60 prefixes. i'm trying to request it with wide-dhcpv6, but i'm not sure which value to use for "sla-len". i have tried "4" and get the following


Code:
dhcp6c[341]: add_ifprefix: invalid prefix length 64 + 4 + 64
/etc/wide-dhcpv6/dhcp6c.conf

Code:
interface external {
        send ia-pd 0;
        request domain-name-servers;
};

id-assoc pd 0 {
        prefix-interface internal {
                sla-id 1;
                sla-len 4;
        };
};
so what number should i use here for a /60?

Comcast doesn't give you a /60 by default. You have to request it with a PD hint. See http://forums.comcast.com/t5/Home-Ne...1609421#M49543 and the discussion that follows. Ignore the "disabled ... for now" part -- that was a year ago.

so i've copied the configuration from that thread; it looks like wide-dhcp is pulling a /60 according to the logs, but it's still assigning the internal interface a /64 prefix. is this normal?

I'm not actually doing any IPv6 subnetting, so I'm not sure just what is supposed to happen there. Anyone??
