There are lots of "lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions
" in var/log/messages
.
I googled and find it is ipv6 releated, so I tried to disable ipv6.
I added the following lines to /etc/sysctl.conf
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1
net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6=1
and blacklist ipv6
to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
after that, I restarted the network by /etc/init.d/networking restart
.
My question is:
The ip addr
still shows inet6 address attached to eth0 in forms like
inet6 fe80::212:79ff:fecf:edaf/64 scope link
Does it means my ipv6 not disabled?
