avahi-autoipd can be used as stand-alone address allocator or as plugin for a DHCP client such as ISC's dhclient, where it can be used as fallback solution if no DHCP server is found.

To allow communication between hosts that have only an IPv4LL + address assigned and hosts that only have a routable IP address + assigned you may add the following routes to both network + configurations:

+ +

route add -net 169.254.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 dev eth0 metric 99

+

route add default dev eth0 metric 99
