[tor-relays] Question about IPv6

Greetings,

I have three relays running Hardened BSD hosted at Frantech. They do not offer support for setting up IPv6. I am not sure how to accomplish this and wondered if anyone would have insight into setting this up? I have not found much in the way of instruction. A resource that provides instructions would be much appreciated.

Kindly,

Dan

Does the provider offer IPv6? If not, then there is no further progress possible.

If they do, this is pretty accurate to get started, https://www.vultr.com/docs/configuring-ipv6-on-freebsd

By Frantech do you mean buyvm.net ?

If it works the same way as buyvm, your VM should have a single public
IPv6 address. You can request a /48 or /56 prefix to be routed to that
public IPv6.

Or do you actually need help to have it setup on Hardened BSD?

Maybe this helps. A working Debian config @frantec/BuyVM

Login to Stallion: Stallion
-> Networking -> IPv6 -> Assign IPv6 Address(es)
After that you see your gateway under Network Settings
(The settings symbol @bottom right)

Set Reverse DNS if you want for IP and IPv6.

You have to 'Graceful Restart' the KVM if you have changed something in the
Stallion network config.

Hint dns-nameservers:
I use unbound as local resolver. IPv4 ns are frantec's and IPv6 ns (Francisco
has no IPv6 ns) are from Digitale Gesellschaft (CH)

There is also very good, competent help on IRC #frantec
