One more test. Please check sysctl -a | grep disable_ipv6 output And if it's =1, set it to 0.
When NetworkManager is running, it may disable ipv6 on the interface if
its not configured via NM...
Yes, that was it. Thanks!!
But this's the default? The installer should be checked for this.
The default is not to disable ipv6 so something in your environment actively did this.
Well... NM needs to put the interface UP so it can reliably monitor the link state. But that was turning ipv6 addr auto-config on and was considered a security issue and thus NM started disabling ipv6 on such (non-configured via NM but monitored) interface to avoid the address auto-configuration from happening, yet causing this.
The fix (to be able to bring it up without ipv6 address autoconfig) needed kernel & NM patches and show be available on 7.0.z very soon.
This does, however, leave me somewhat confused as to how you claimed there was a fc00::1001 address on there and you were adding the additional address when you saw the refused message...
Such address was on the host, no?
