Hello,

Thanks for quick reply. As per your instructions I configured one  laptop
other than HA,MN,CN to do radvd advertisements since i don't have ipv6
network over here. MN,HA,CN are able to ping each other before mip6d-ng
starts,but same problem persists i am not able to ping MN in any
context.however I am able to see BU-BA pairs on console and only BU pairs
in wireshark.

-config file contents are as follows:

*MN*

loglevel = 2
interfaces = { "wlan0" }
md-delete-delay = 8
mn {
        home-address = "2001:db5:ffff:0:8ea9:82ff:fe5e:8604"
        ha-address   = "2001:db5:ffff:0:219:d2ff:fe75:63a9"
        lifetime = 40
}
bid-pri wlan0 {
        # Lower value indicates higher priority
        priority = 10
}
api {
listening_port = 1234
}

*HA *

loglevel = 2
ha {
    address = "2001:db5:ffff:0:219:d2ff:fe75:63a9"
    interface = "wlan0"
}
api {
    listening_port = 1234
}

What is the problem in my setup?

Thanks and regards,
Neha
