The one address that contains ...ff:fe... is the permanent address.

Dear all,

I recently setup my first tunnel, I enable port forwarding for port 9033 for TCP and UDP on my router. The port is now open for IPV4 but not for IPV6.
Since the tunnel bypasses my router I do not think the problem is with the router but with either the tunnel end or with my server.
I use Ubuntu as OS and tried to add specific rules to ip6tables sudo ip6tables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 9033 -j ACCEPT
in the hope this might resolve the issue, but it has not.
Any thoughts on how to open a specific port for a tunnel or further diagnose if the problem is with the tunnel or my server?
Are ports in and 6in4 tunnel open by default or closed by default, all unknowns to me ?

Regards,

Norin

I'm saying that right now, without any changes, you should have two public IPv6 addresses assigned to an Interface if you're using RA.

It's been a long time since I used IPv6 on Linux, sorry I can't tell you for sure which one will stay.  Worst case, take a screenshot and compare it to what you see the next day, that should tell you which addresses change.

I've replied to your ticket generated. I haven't seen any replies or emails come in regarding this tunnel.

Hello,

I deleted a BGP tunnel and then created a new one (Tunnel ID: 566278).
The status has been pending for a week.

I sent an email to support asking for the information to be provided, but no response to date.

Could someone of support help me to unblock the situation?

Thanks,
Nicolas

Yes, if you want to keep the same address, disable privacy extensions.

However, you should have two addresses, one that changes and one that stays the same.

Would that be without privacy extensions disabled? There are three options 1. Disabled 2.Enabled prefer public address 3. Enabled prefer temporary address.

Which one would give you two addresses with one that does not change?

.../64 scope global dynamic mngtmpaddr noprefixroute

Is this the one that does not change?

Hi, I am wondering if I need to disable privacy extensions on my Linux host in order to pull a stable ipv6 address that does not change every day for a server that I run? I realize this will need to be changed when my dynamic ipv4 ip address changes. I have a 6in4 tunnel on my router.

I have been sending emails about various requests and I never get a response. All I can think is the HE ticket system does not work with my domain nyy.ca

I have been trying to get an issue with my address verification resolved as I assume that is why I haven't received my t-shirt yet.

I completed the IPv6 tests some time ago and my friend received his shirt, however I never received mine. I log into my account and on one line the address is verified but on the next it says verification incomplete. What do I need to do to verify my address?

There has been some reports of routers which do not support 6in4 but do support 6RD. If you are asking because you own such a router it's worth pointing out that some users have successfully made such routers work with tunnelbroker.net.

The trick is that 6RD configuration options are so flexible that by tweaking configuration options 6RD can be made to behave like 6to4 or 6in4 or anything in-between. At least one such router is a little bit picky about configuration options and will refuse to use a routed /64 but it will work with a routed /48.
