 IPv6 in Shared-Stack Zones  
 By user12618912 on Oct 08, 2009  
   
 I was recently at an OpenSolaris user-group meeting where a question was asked regarding how IPv6 could be used from a shared-stack zone. For the benefit of anyone who has a similar question, here is an example of a working configuration:   
   
 bash-3.2# zoneadm list -iv  
  ID NAME       STATUS   PATH              BRAND  IP    
   0 global      running  /               native  shared  
   - test       installed /export/home/test       native  excl   
   - test2      installed /export/home/test2       native  shared  
 The exclusive-stack zone "test" has all of its own networking configured within it, so IPv6 inherently just works there. The question, however, was about shared-stack, and so I setup the "test2" zone to demonstrate this.   
   
 bash-3.2# zonecfg -z test2  
 zonecfg:test2> add net  
 zonecfg:test2:net> set physical=e1000g0  
 zonecfg:test2:net> set address=fe80::1234/10  
 zonecfg:test2:net> end  
 zonecfg:test2> add net  
 zonecfg:test2:net> set physical=e1000g0  
 zonecfg:test2:net> set address=2002:a08:39f0:1::1234/64  
 zonecfg:test2:net> end  
 zonecfg:test2> verify  
 zonecfg:test2> commit  
 zonecfg:test2> exit  
 bash-3.2# zonecfg -z test2 info  
 zonename: test2  
 zonepath: /export/home/test2  
 brand: native  
 ...  
 net:  
  address: 10.8.57.111/24  
  physical: e1000g0  
  defrouter not specified  
 net:  
  address: fe80::1234/10  
  physical: e1000g0  
  defrouter not specified  
 net:  
  address: 2002:a08:39f0:1::1234/64  
  physical: e1000g0  
  defrouter not specified  
 Here I configured a link-local address fe80::1234/10, and a global address 2002:a08:39f0:1::1234/64. Each interface within each zone requires a link-local address for use with neighbor-discovery, and the global address is the address used for actual IPv6 communication by applications and services. The global address' prefix is one that is configured on the link to which the interface is connected. In the zone, we end up with:  
   
 bash-3.2# zlogin test2 ifconfig -a6  
 lo0:1: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1  
  inet6 ::1/128   
 e1000g0:2: flags=2000841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2  
  inet6 fe80::1234/10   
 e1000g0:3: flags=2000841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2  
  inet6 2002:a08:39f0:1::1234/64   
 The global zone has IPv6 connectivity using this same prefix as well as a default IPv6 route: [2]  
   
 bash-3.2# netstat -f inet6 -rn

 From the non-global zone, we have IPv6 connectivity:

enable ipv6 on solaris10 afterthefact

 effing oracle.  
   
 you have this:  
 # ifconfig inet6 interface plumb up  
   
 which in my case is:  
 # ifconfig inet6 igb0 plumb up  
   
 and it spits out:  
 ifconfig: igb0: bad address (try again later)  
   
 no. your doc writers are jerks. here's what it should look like:  
   
 root@host:~$ ifconfig igb0 inet6 plumb  
 root@host:~$ ifconfig igb0 inet6 token ::10/64  
   
 root@host:~$ svcadm enable svc:/network/routing/ndp:default  
   
 root@host:~$ pkill -HUP in.ndpd  
   
 root@host:~$ ifconfig -a6  
   
 igb0: flags=2000840<RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 2  
     inet6 fe80::210:e0ff:fe0c:ea9a/10  
     ether 0:10:e0:c:ea:9a  
   
 make it permanent.
