[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] uqmi: Add proper IPv6 support

Hello Matti,

thanks, I very much support this patch.
One little thing:

proto_add_ipv6_route "::0" 0 "$gateway_6"

should be

proto_add_ipv6_route "::0" 0 "$gateway_6" "" "" "${ip_6}/${ip_prefix_length}"

otherwise this might break IPv6 connectivity in the presence of other
IPv6 connections. In general for IPv6 routes must be source-restricted
to the prefixes and addresses that the ISP delegated, otherwise it might
happen that the routers tries to route traffic with source-addresses
from a different ISP through this connection and the ISP might drop the traffic
due to the source-addressing being "spoofed" essentially creating a blackhole.



Cheers,

Steven
