I am running radvd (2.17-2, Debian Buster) on a local network to provide IPv6 access. I would like to make radvd advertise the static IP of the interface (e.g. 2001::1/64) as the gateway IP instead of the link-local address (like fe80::something/64). I have tried AdvRASrcAddress but it seems to be only effective for LL addresses so I can't specify 2001::1/64 there.

How to make radvd advertise the static IP as gateway instead of the LL address?

If radvd isn't up to this task, I'm open to other solutions.

  • This sounds like an [XY](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XY_problem) kind of question, what is the actual goal here? I don't believe what is asked for is possible in the protocol (nothing specific to radvd), but it's also unclear what the purpose is. – Håkan Lindqvist Feb 29 '20 at 10:31
  • Is the actual goal to just to not have an auto-assigned address rather than specifically wanting a global unicast address? If so, you could assign a custom link-local address? – Håkan Lindqvist Feb 29 '20 at 10:43
