Investigate: Evaluate semantics of IPv6 forwarding #785
Description
The way Infix handles the IPv6 forwarding primitive differs significantly from what's stated in ietf-ip.yang.
Is this how we want it?
New idea on 2025-02-05: Disable global IPv6 forwarding handle until at least one interface has IPv6 forwarding true.
Quote from Infix documentation:
For IPv6 the ability to route between interfaces is always enabled, instead this flag controls ... Quote from ietf-ip.yang.
leaf forwarding { type boolean; default false; description "Controls IPv6 packet forwarding of datagrams received by, but not addressed to, this interface. IPv6 routers forward datagrams. IPv6 hosts do not (except those source-routed via the host)."; reference "RFC 4861: Neighbor Discovery for IP version 6 (IPv6) Section 6.2.1, IsRouter"; } Metadata
