Problem with IPv6 Test (IP doesn't change automatically with cable plugged in)

[zackdlut]

I am performing an IPv6 Ready Logo test, but I came across a big problem. When I perform the 1.2 part test (Address Autoconfiguration and Duplicate Address Detection) with FreeBSD, FreeBSD does not change the IP address automatically when the cables are plugged in. Why FreeBSD can't change the IP address automatically, I just don't understand.

Did you have IPv6 enabled in your /etc/rc.conf file with the line

ipv6_enable="YES"

? What is the output, when you run /etc/rc.d/network_ipv6 status? Did you explicity enabled some IPv6 interface with the line

ipv6_network_interfaces="em0"

for example, in the /etc/rc.conf file? Is the interface which you are testing connected with an IPv6 enabled network ( ndp -a)?

And, most importantly, which version of FreeBSD?
