This facilitates writing simple ipv6 firewalling with ip6tables. After the OpenVPN connection is established, the client is assigned an ipv6 address through OpenVPN and the client is ipv6-enabled! But what if the client in question is the gateway for an office network? To enable ipv6 on the network behind it, read on to part 2.
The IPv6 Client Program Example . The following program example demonstrates the IPv6 client program with host name as the argument. Take note that we include the inet_pton() source code as a function in this program just to demo its functionalities on Windows system prior to Vista or Server 2008. Some of the Linux virtual-machine images in the Azure Marketplace do not have Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol version 6 (DHCPv6) configured by default. To support IPv6, DHCPv6 must be configured in the Linux OS distribution that you are using. Configure an IPv6 DHCP Server. DHCPv6 is a method to assign IPv6 addresses automatically to network clients. When you enable IPv6 for a trusted or optional interface, you can enable the DHCPv6 server on the interface, to assign IPv6 addresses to clients that connect. IPv6 6RD (Rapid Deployment) is an IPv6 tunneling technique, similar to 6to4 tunneling. It is stateless and encapsulates IPv6 packets into IPv4 packets. 6to4 tunneling has some limitations which are why ISPs never really implemented it: Packets from native IPv6 hosts have to traverse a 6to4 relay rou The controller sees the link-local ipv6 address for clients in this vlan. The router sees the link-local address for these clients as well. The client (MacOS) is configured for "Automatic" not link-local. The router is receiving solicits on this vlan. The controller user table sees two addresses for the client MAC, an ipv4 and ipv6 link-local.
This will test your browser and connection for IPv6 readiness, as well as show you your current IPv4 and IPv6 address.

IPv6 is the successor to the first addressing infrastructure of the Internet, Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4). In contrast to IPv4, which defined an IP address as a 32-bit value, IPv6 addresses have a size of 128 bits. Therefore, IPv6 has a vastly enlarged address space compared to IPv4.
