A question before setting this to resolved:

What does N/D mean?

Shouldnt it be N/A instead?

Confirmed working with VyOS 1.5-rolling-202309110651

Im a bit allergic to have stuff automatically created which clearly is not enabled by the config.

pim6reg is created by FFR's pim6d. It seems to me that it will create such as interface for each VRF. Does this interface have any functional impact on your setup?

set protocols static proxy-arp 192.0.2.1 interface eth0
set protocols static proxy-arp 192.0.2.1 interface eth1
set protocols static proxy-ndp 2001:db8::1 interface eth1

I dont know if its related to this task but I noticed recently that even if I have no IPv6 configured on any interface and have IPv6 disabled for forwarding:

set system ipv6 disable-forwarding

I can in VyOS 1.5-rolling-202309080021 see an additional pim6reg interface!?

Oh sorry, I missed that this commit was for LTS 1.3.x series.

@Apachez I am running kernel 6.1.49-amd64-vyos and this works fine with my local setup.
The patch is already in linux kernel since at least 4.3 (you can confirm with https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_zones.h?h=linux-4.3.y), but it was added to nft command only since Feb 2017: https://git.netfilter.org/nftables/commit/src/ct.c?id=ed66d9966294a3bab6c8611e369861ba57374743

Fix by @sever regarding those failing conntrack smoketest: https://github.com/vyos/vyos-1x/pull/2234

Can we see the output of sudo nft list table ip raw on an affected router?

@vfreex the referenced netfilter patch is from 2015, is that really valid for current version thats included in the Linux 6.1 LTS kernel?

You can test this approach on a running VyOS router using following commands:

I created a PR to fix this issue by using direction parameter of conntrack zones: https://github.com/vyos/vyos-1x/pull/2236
I have a very basic VRF setup and it works fine. It would be much appreciated if someone could test this with more complex VRF setup.

Sorry to bother you @sdev , the latest releases of 1.5-rolling-202309080021 and 1.4-rolling-202309070021 still have this problem.

Added backport for FRR 7.5 https://github.com/FRRouting/frr/pull/14381

I guess we should use the current ip neighbor xxx instead of old arp. I hope it does the same.

sudo ip neighbor add proxy 192.0.2.1 dev eth0
sudo ip -6 neigh add proxy aa::1 dev eth0

Show

vyos@r1# sudo ip neighbor show proxy
192.168.122.11 dev eth0  proxy
192.0.2.1 dev eth0  proxy
aa::1 dev eth0  proxy
