For some reason I have to temporarily deactivate IPv6 interface configuration on a F22 server box.
According to documentation (or at least as I understood) it could be done either by adding
IPV6INIT=no
IPV6_AUTOCONF=no
to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
or
NETWORKING_IPV6=no
IPV6_AUTOCONF=no
to /etc/sysconfig/network
I tried both, executed "nmcli c reload", "systemctl restart NetworkManager", even rebooted the system. No change in network configuration. In ifconfig I have a local link address as well as a global address as advertised by the router and autoconfig based on mac address.
All those options are documented in usr/share/doc/initscripts/sysconfig.txt, so I guess these are still valid options.
Now I am wondering what I may have overlooked or missed?
Any hint appreciated.
