Hi All,
It has come to my attention - thanks Andy - that my IP6 configuration
may be wrong. My VPS is receiving IP6 traffic, but sending none, and is
(perhaps sometimes) unable to route to an IP6 address.
This is way beyond my pay grade, so I need some help here.
When I look in my cpanel, it says my IP6 address is
2001:ba8:1f1:f00d::/64
But ip a gives ....
ian@hobsoni:~$ ip a
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
group default qlen 1000
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00

ian@hobsoni:~$ ip -6 route show

And here is the netplan config
ian@hobsoni:/etc/netplan$ cat 01-netcfg.yaml
network:
version: 2
renderer: networkd
ethernets:
eth0:
addresses:
- "85.119.82.210/21"
- "2001:ba8:1f1:f00d::2/64"
gateway4: 85.119.80.1
gateway6: "2001:ba8:1f1:f00d::1"
nameservers:
addresses: [85.119.80.232 85.119.80.233]
ian@hobsoni:/etc/netplan$
I'm guessing that f06e is not f00d for netplan and its barfing on it.
(Sorry).
But I don't know which is correct.
Regards
Ian
