All up, a good first day of GSoC 2011! | All up, a good first day of GSoC 2011! | ||

+ | Managed to get some more progress on the IPv6 implementation today. I figured out how to create a command and added the "ipv6" command to begin testing stateless autoconfiguration (as per the project plan). So far so good - the only thing I really need to do now is actually assign IPv6 addresses to netdevices so they can begin talking on the network for NDP and other ICMPv6 stuff (in week 2). That'll come soon. | ||

+ | I also created a [[https://picasaweb.google.com/pcmattman/GoogleSummerOfCode2011?authkey=Gv1sRgCImD_Zf4zsaUsgE&feat=directlink| Google Picasa album for my work]] on this project, so I can look back on screenshots and photographs and see my progress :). I uploaded a photo of one of my test machines creating a useful autoconfiguration IPv6 address, and it also shows some IPv6 traffic passing through. | ||

+ | Guo-Fu gave some good advice for the code I've written so far - mainly with respect to committing it. | ||

+ | I didn't manage to get any code written today - a few appointments and work commitments. | ||

+ | Marty set me up with an account on the server though, so I now have a non-github git repository to work in. |
