Description

Hello all

I've build sagitta-epa2 from the sources, a couple of weeks ago (when it still worked). While testing acme I noticed, that it is not possible to listen on the IPv6-address of my router. There are fix addresses configured for ipv4 and ipv6.

manuel@fe73651# set pki certificate my-test-cert acme listen-address 
Possible completions:
   <x.x.x.x>            IPv4 address to listen for incoming connections
   10.0.0.25            
   10.0.0.9             
   10.13.0.1            
   10.13.0.3            
   10.13.0.6            
   10.49.5.1            
   10.49.6.1            
   10.49.7.254          
   127.0.0.1            
   93.90.xx.xx

Can you manually edit the node and re-check if it will work for acme

sudo nano -c /opt/vyatta/share/vyatta-cfg/templates/pki/certificate/node.tag/acme/listen-address/node.def

replace:

type: txt
help: Local IPv4 addresses to listen on
val_help: ipv4; IPv4 address to listen for incoming connections
allowed: sh -c "${vyos_completion_dir}/list_local_ips.sh --ipv4"
syntax:expression: exec "${vyos_libexec_dir}/validate-value  --exec \"${vyos_validators_dir}/ipv4-address \"  --value \'$VAR(@)\'"; "Invalid value"

to

type: txt
help: Local IPv4 addresses to listen on
val_help: ipv4; IPv4 address to listen for incoming connections

And try to configure IPv6, but need to check if it will really work for acme.
I didn't work with it

It seems to work basically
