IPv6 about tcconfig HOT 5 CLOSED

tcconfig does support IPv6.

is there a flag I need to set.

Yes. Please add --ipv6 option when you use IPv6 addresses.

An execution example could be found here http://tcconfig.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pages/usage/tcset/index.html#using-ipv6

from tcconfig.

What order should that be in? currently I'm using the following:
tcset --device --eth0 --direction incoming --delay 500 --network fe80::a00:27ff:fe59:f5a3
I've tried several ways and it keeps telling me "error: unrecognized arguments: --ipv6"
Where in that should the --ipv6 flag go?

Thank you for your additional information.

The option not consider order.
I guess that the error caused from installed tcconfig version in your environment.
tcconfig supported IPv6 since version 0.9.0.
Could you check the installed tcconfig version with tcset --version?
If the version is lower than 0.9.0, please upgrade to tcconfig 0.9.0 with pip install tcconfig --upgrade command.

In my environment (Debian 8.6, tcconfig 0.9.0, Python 2.7.9), your command succeeded.

# tcset --device eth0 --direction incoming --delay 500 --network fe80::a00:27ff:fe59:f5a3 --ipv6
# tcshow --device eth0 --ipv6
{
    "eth0": {
        "outgoing": {},
        "incoming": {
            "network=fe80::a00:27ff:fe59:f5a3/128, protocol=ipv6": {
                "delay": "500.0",
                "rate": "32G"
            }
        }
    }
}

There's the problem. I was on version 0.7.0. Thanks for the help!

It's my pleasure.
I'll close the issue then.
