Questions & Answers / Any chance to use HE with DSLI...

Last post by holgermarzen - May 01, 2025, 02:42:51 AM

At the moment I can buy a temporary public ipv4 address and use my ipv6 tunnel without problems.
Since providers tend more and more to offer private ipv4 addresses I am afraid that I cannot get a public ipv4 address anymore when I get my FTTH connection and have to use a new contract.

Is there any chance getting my ipv6 /48 with DSLITE? Maybe by using ipv6 for the tunnel?

Last post by numanoids - April 09, 2025, 09:30:22 AM

I'm trying to set up caddy using the dns provider and getting badauth however when i try to manually update the same record using a curl, i'm also getting badauth. I've validated i'm using the correct ddns key but still getting badauth.

Can someone shed any light on why this might be the case?

Questions & Answers / Re: fra1 down?

I reached out to ipv6@he.net and my ISP (server4you).

It looks like packets are dropped within my ISPs infrastructure.

Questions & Answers / fra1 down?

Last post by jue - March 19, 2025, 11:01:27 AM

My tunnel to fra1 stopped working. (Tunnel ID: 381699)

I checked my configuration and it looks fine and hasn't been modified recently. I see packets outgoing to 216.66.80.30, but I'm not receiving any packets from that endpoint. Also using the IPv6 Portscan tool scanning my IPv6 endpoint doesn't show any packets coming from 216.66.80.30.

Is anyone else experiencing issues?

General Discussion / Re: Sage T-Shirt

Last post by loompek - March 05, 2025, 11:45:37 AM

I just watched the LAN Rangers YouTube channel and noticed the shirt. I've had my Sage certification for about 15 years now, but sadly, the t-shirt I had wore out last year. I really miss it, as it was great quality. Any chance HE would be willing to send an extra one? A size M or L would be much appreciated.

2001:db8:1::/48 that's like 65535 /64 networks...

range6 2001:db8:1:7fff:0:0:0:0 2001:db8:1:7fff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff;

you don't have to define absolute network boundaries anymore, it's not v4, just take the range that you gonna be working with, but first you need to delegate prefix inside that subnet6 /48 statement, any number in quad 4 is a network, so, first you trim that number to whatever you need.. so for example, 16 networks would make it /60

I'll try to explain it as simply as I can.

Code Select Expand

subnet6 2001:db8:1::/48 {
       prefix6 2001:db8:1:000[0]:: 2001:db8:1:000[f]::/60; # I put network range here in brackets
        range6 2001:db8:1:000[0]:: 2001:db8:1:000[f]::; # nice starting range for the routers yeah

# don't have routers? no problem, you can skip network division by commenting out two lines above and jump
# straight to address-space by delegating # /64 instead, you'd still need to pick network for that space.

# Understand the address-range you working with here:
# let's say you picked network "f",

        prefix6 2001:db8:1:000[f]::0 2001:db8:1:000[f]:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff/64; # that'd be one
                                                    # [       /64         ]    # /64 of the 000f/60 network
                                              #[          /48             ]    # ..or one of 65535 in /48
         range6 2001:db8:1:000f::a8:[0000] 2001:db8:1:000f::a8:[ffff]; # you can narrow it down further
                                                              #[/112]  # for convenience (/112 in this example,
                                                                       # or 65535 addresses)
                                                             
};

I think that's about right.

Take your time to plan your future network structure, because once you picked the network (quad 4) - you have to commit to that prefix for at least a year. got 7fff by accident? :7fff: it is...
by the way, 2001:db8:: is used for documentation only)

Anyways I hope it helps.

Last post by pmf026 - February 28, 2025, 11:03:48 PM

I think it's something you should do yourself. Treat "he-ipv6" (or whatever name you assigned for it) like another external wan interface. Need rate-limit? Set it up, I mean it's not ISP's responsibility and if your router can't handle it, invest in more powerful router maybe?
