Hi,

a few days ago i updated from 6.0.4 to 6.2 and now i got every 10 sec's this messages in the system log:

our AdvOtherConfigFlag on wan1 doesn't agree with fe80::1 our AdvManagedFlag on wan1 doesn't agree with fe80::1 our AdvOtherConfigFlag on wan2 doesn't agree with fe80::1 our AdvManagedFlag on wan2 doesn't agree with fe80::1

What is this message telling me?

Is the FG sending router advertisements to the wan interface and is reporting that it also get informations from fe80::1?

fe80::1 is the gateway IP on both WAN interfaces. (The provider)

The WAN interfaces are configured with DHCP.

o.k Regarding the frame, there are two ICMPv6 flags set with "1":

- Managed address configuration - Other configuration

This two are logged in the FG system log.

So i searched at google for this:

The “Managed” address config flag specifies whether “Stateful configuration” is to be used. Stateful configuration would typically be understood to mean DHCPv6. The “Other” stateful config flag means that nodes on this link (local network) should use Stateful configuration (DHCPv6) for things other than address assignment.

The WAN interfaces are in DHCP mode, so i don't see what's wrong.

In 6.0.4 i don't got this message, so i think there is a possibility that this a bug in 6.2.

I also made a support ticket...
