Hi Brett, I am enjoying native IPv6 from TekSavvy, including /64 address delegation to my intranet hosts. It is a brittle setup, but it works. The key things to configure are: * pppd / rp-pppoe * sysctl (forwarding=1, autoconf=1, accept_ra=2) * iptables ... -j TCPMSS --clamp-mss-to-pmtu * wide-dhcpv6-client * dnsmasq Here are some highlights of the setup: * modem setup to bypass mode (does not terminate pppoe) * Debian router terminates pppoe using rp-pppoe * TekSavvy gives me 2 logins, one for static IPv4 and another for IPv6 -- I don't know if they still do this, but back when they started this is what they did :-) * I have /etc/ppp/peers/ipv4 and /etc/ppp/peers/ipv6 -- "pon ipv4" brings up ppp0, "pon ipv6" brings up ppp1 * /etc/ppp/ipv6-up.d/0-local script does the heavy lifting -- sets up sysctl params, starts dhcp6c on the ppp1 device, etc * pppoe itself will get my ppp1 IPv6 address, but it does not delegate to the LAN * dhcp6c (from wide-dhcpv6 package) is requests teh /56 from TS over DHPCv6 * an alternative would be to use radvd or dhcpcd5 -- I didn't get that to work for me -- or it wasn't stable * I use dnsmasq to do the actual address delegation -- dnsmasq.conf has "enable-ra" and "ra-param=eth0,60" options * the routing ocasionally stops working -- I have a script that tests IPv6 status every few minutes -- if needed does an "poff ipv6" followed by "pon ipv6" -- sometimes the pppoe sessions stay up for weeks, sometimes for minutes Other than the last part (the script that restart ipv6 pppoe sessions), I found all the details in various HOWTOs online. It's been a while, so I don't recall how it all works at a protocol level anymore. And I certainly, I don't remember exactly what sources I used to learn all this crap :-) Let me know what specifically doesn't work for you. -Bart On Thu, Aug 2, 2018 at 10:45 PM Brett Delmage < Brett [ dot ] Delmage [ at ] twobikes [ dot ] ottawa [ dot ] on [ dot ] ca> wrote: > Is anyone runnning ipv6 dual stack on TekSavvy with a static ip on your > Linux host?
