does anyone have armada 8040 here
<Ke>
or mostly does someone have it working on linux-5.9 or later

Is there any reason for doing IPv6 at home/on your router? I am debating if it is worth the trouble
<Reventlov>
eyJhb: well, you don't have ipv6 at home ?
<Reventlov>
the main reason would be well, using ipv6.
<eyJhb>
Reventlov: Well, I think the main thing is, that no hosts in my local network can access IPv6 sites, etc. even when I have a external IPv6 IP
<Reventlov>
usually you don't have an external IPv6
<Reventlov>
you get at least a /64
<eyJhb>
I have a list of inet6 when doing a ifconfig, on my external interface
<eyJhb>
Maybe need to read a little more up on it

eyJhb: just enable v6 on a vlan on your network and then play with it. You'll never want to go back to a NAT world afterwards ;)

(not technically a router, but I guess this is the closest match…) I want to (ab)use a mini-PC I have here as a wireless AP. However, the wifi driver doesn't allow adding the wifi interface to a bridge (my idea was to create a bridge containing the wifi interface and a VLAN interface on the ethernet link). Is anyone aware of a way around this?
<hexa->
ip link set master br-foo dev wlan0 doesn't work?
<hexa->
that's not uncommon, since some drivers are not giving you a 5-tuple required for bridging
<hexa->
what you can try is, in your hostapd.conf
<hexa->
bridge=br-foo
<sphalerite>
oh silly me. hostapd wasn't starting because I'd forgotten to set an interface name on it, which is why it wouldn't let me put the interface in the bridge… pebkac
<sphalerite>
thanks hexa- x)
<sphalerite>
hrm, it's still not working though. The DHCP requests coming in on the bridge aren't arriving on the DHCP server.
<hexa->
huh
<hexa->
then the dhcp server isn't listening on the bridge :p
<sphalerite>
well the DHCP server is on a different machine
<sphalerite>
and according to tcpdump on that machine, the DHCP requests aren't arriving
<sphalerite>
the AP machine is getting an address via DHCP on the bridge just fine though.
<sphalerite>
and the AP machine is getting the DHCP requests on the bridge, according to tcpdump
<sphalerite>
so I think the bridging isn't working?
<sphalerite>
all this effort just to try and eliminate this passive-PoE AP…
