Synopsis
dhcpv6 bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated dhcpv6 packages that resolve various issues are now available.
Description
The dhcpv6 package implements the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) for Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) networks in accordance with
RFC 3315 : Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6). These
packages consist of dhcp6s(8), the server DHCP daemon, and dhcp6r(8),
the DHCPv6 relay agent.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- -Before, dhcp6c would not allow an interface to be configured unless
an IPv4 primary address had been configured on the interface; now,
dhcp6c no longer requires an IPv4 address in order to configure IPv6
addresses with the DHCPv6 protocol.
- -Problems with dhcp6c code that updates resolv.conf which could result
in a segmentation violation have now been fixed.
- -Previously, dhcp6c could only configure radvd to do prefix delegation
on the same interface on which it had received a prefix lease from
dhcp6s; now, there is a 'prefix-delegation-interface' parameter that
can be set in /etc/dhcp6c.conf that can select the interface that
radvd can be configured to serve by dhcp6c.
All users of dhcpv6 should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve
these issues.
