Hi,
I am testing the IPv6 PPPoE with a windows client and a Cisco 3745 router. I am able to negotiate the IPv6 addresses - both link-local and a global prefix assigned from a pool. I am trying to ping another windows client connected directly to the fastethernet interface of the Cisco router with the same prefix as the PPPoE client or the IPv6 address from the same prefix of the Cisco router. In both cases, the ping fails. I find that the problem when pinging the Cisco router is that the router does not join the solicited node multicast address on the virtual interface. It joins it on the interface (either loopback or fastethernet) where this address is explicitly assigned. When I try configuring an explicit address on the virtual-template address, I dont see it inherited by the virtual-access address.
When I try to ping the other windows client, the issue is that the neighbor solicitation is going out on the PPPoE interface of the windows client. But, the second client is on the fastethernet interface of the router.
Can anyone tell me how to solve these issues in IPv6? I tried posting another query earlier but havent had any responses. Can this mail be fwded to the expert for remote access?
thanks,
Anupama
