Seems strange though. Because I am using LWIP 2.1.2 and everything is working. Did you register a callback function as follows during your initialization?:

ppp_set_netif_statuscallback()

ppp_set_netif_linkcallback()

your netif_statuscallback should be triggered once the Router Advertisement comes in After the solicitation. That’s where you will see your full IPv6 address.

After your pppObject = pppos_create() is successful, you need to do something like this…

ppp_set_netif_statuscallback(pppObject, pppNetifStatusCB);

Your callback should look something like this

static void pppNetifStatusCB (struct netif *netif)

{

#if LWIP_IPV6

    uint8_t i;

#endif

   printf("\r\nCELL_PPP: PPP NETIF interface %s\r\n", netif_is_up(netif) ? "UP" : "DOWN");

#if LWIP_IPV6

    // We've been notified that a change is about to take place on the interface.

    // Check if we now have a routable address instead of Link-local address only.

    for (i = 0; i < LWIP_IPV6_NUM_ADDRESSES; i++)

    {

        if (!ip_addr_isany(netif_ip_addr6(netif, i)) &&

            !ip_addr_islinklocal(netif_ip_addr6(netif, i)) )

        {

            Printf( " Unicast IPv6 Address: %s\r\n", ip6addr_ntoa(netif_ip6_addr(netif, i)));

        }

    }

#endif

}

Your can send me snippet of what you are doing if you still have problem. I have tested this on both BG95 and BG96.

Thanks Edman

That is the same place I added, but I don't see ipv6 address get through yet.

I also tried 2.1.3 and still same.

May I know anything missing?

Thanks a lot for your help

Hi Ivan,

When you get your callback indicating that the connection is up, that is when you need to send the router solicitation.

See the example code below in the following link : https://github.com/particle-iot/lwip-contrib/blob/master/examples/ppp/pppos_example.c

Look at line 96 – 98

#if PPP_IPV6_SUPPORT

        fprintf(stderr, "   our6_ipaddr = %s\n\r", ip6addr_ntoa(netif_ip6_addr(pppif, 0)));

       This is where you send Router Solicitation

#endif /* PPP_IPV6_SUPPORT */

Hi Edman,

Thanks a lot for the information. It appears that is the same issue I faced.

I tried your suggestion, to add nd6_send_rs, but nothing happened, or I just add it in wrong place(I call it in ppposif.c).

Could you please shed some light on how to send this rs?

Upgrading to 2.1.3 may not be an option for me for now.

thanks a lot

Hi Ivan,

You need to explicitly send a router solicitation to the network in other to get the full IPv6 Address. The function to call is nd6_send_rs() in n6.c . However, this is a static function and you may have to create a wrapper to call it. As of yesterday, LWIP 2.1.3 was released and they now send RS automatically for IPv6. Hope this helps as I had the same issue 9 months ago.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [lwip-users] lwip IPV6 PPP only get link local address and cannot connect to server

Hi everyone,

I have a project that is running LwIP V2.1.2. The stack is LwIP on top of BG96 cellular modem.

It works fine for IPV4, but when I enable IPV6, I only get IPV6 link local address, and cannot get real IPV6 address, therefore, I cannot connect to my server.

The LwIP comes from ST cellular expansion package.

I enable the log, and it got local and remote LL address, but after that never got any real address, and cannot connect to my server.

thanks a lot for any hints or suggestions.

thanks

Ivan
