Bug #5155

Updated by Alexander Lane about 3 years ago

While we have workarounds, Mini-NDN has had a persistent IPv6 related NFD crash for several months we've had trouble solving. The issue appears to occur when NFD tries to create a multicast IPv6 face on a Mini-NDN-Wifi interface while NetworkManager is enabled. In order to mitigate it, NetworkManager has to be disabled and an additional (~3s) wait time be given for NFD, or for the node to have no IPv6 address be assigned at all. Attached is a Mini-NDN script I used to consistently reproduce the issue (check logs of node a) and a log from one of these runs. 

 Mini-NDN can be found here, the installation scripts should include all needed dependencies: https://github.com/named-data/mini-ndn
