I am running Fedora 14 which is connecting to a Cisco 881 router.
eth1 is the connection to the Cisco router, and eth0 will be connected to an
internal switch with other clients.
I have notices that net.ipv6.conf.eth1.accept_ra is defaulted to 0. I
manually set that value to 1 using sysctl -w
net.ipv6.conf.eth1.forwarding = 1 again set manually to 1.
/etc/sysconfig/networking has NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
How do I get Fedora14 to auto-configure the eth1 interface?
Run system-config-network ( System → Administration → Network ) and pull up
your interface. If you're not running X, system-config-network-tui should do
the job.
That's always a good first step, at least. It'll set up
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-[interface] which is where initscripts
look to set up the network interfaces at boot.
