Nginx As Reverse Proxy IPV6 to IPV4 Website
Like many other reverse proxying mechanism, the configuration is quite simple. All we need is just website that's lived in ipv4, and Nginx with IPv6 capabled network.
Using IPv6 with Custom and Secondary DNS
source: http://www.dyndns.com/support/kb/ipv6_with_custom_secdns.html
As part of Dyn Inc.’s IPv6 implementation plan, DynDNS.com has recently made a new IPv6 nameserver available for Custom DNS and Secondary DNS customers. Whether you’re looking to get a jump on the transition to IPv6 or you’re simply curious, we’ve created this short tutorial to help you make use of the new nameserver.
Disclaimer
Before we begin, please note that the information in this article is purely for testing and educational purposes. DynDNS.com does not currently guarantee the availability of its IPv6 test servers, so please exercise caution when adding them to the delegation of a domain. Additionally, this article does not provide instructions for configuring IPv6 in your environment, and assumes that you have already done so.
Router Advertisement Daemon (radvd)
Router Advertisement Daemon (radvd)
The router advertisement daemon is very useful on a LAN, if clients should be auto-configured. The daemon itself should run on the Linux default IPv6 gateway router (it’s not required that this is also the default IPv4 gateway, so pay attention who on your LAN is sending router advertisements).
You can specify some information and flags which should be contained in the advertisement. Common used are:
- Prefix (needed)
- Lifetime of the prefix
- Frequency of sending advertisements (optional)
After a proper configuration, the daemon sends advertisements through specified interfaces and clients are hopefully receive them and auto-magically configure addresses with received prefix and the default route.
Configuring radvd
Simple configuration
Radvd’s config file is normally /etc/radvd.conf. An simple example looks like following:
interface eth0 {
AdvSendAdvert on;
MinRtrAdvInterval 3;
MaxRtrAdvInterval 10;
prefix 2001:0db8:0100:f101::/64 {
AdvOnLink on;
AdvAutonomous on;
AdvRouterAddr on;
};
};
This results on client side in
# ip -6 addr show eth0
3: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 100
inet6 2001:0db8:100:f101:2e0:12ff:fe34:1234/64 scope global dynamic
valid_lft 2591992sec preferred_lft 604792sec
inet6 fe80::2e0:12ff:fe34:1234/10 scope link
Because no lifetime was defined, a very high value was used.

IPv6 without tunnel broker on linux
source: http://www.atoomnet.net/ipv62002.php 2 easy steps to make IPv6 work without a tunnel broker. The technique used to make this work is called 6to4. You use a computer of somebody else to put your IPv6 traffic on the very big IPv6 network. Okay, lets make things work: Step 1 type this on…
Disabling IPv6 for Linux distributions
source: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1013234 Details In many Linux distributions if IPv6 is enabled, VMware Tools cannot be configured with vmware-config-tools.pl after installation. In this case, VMware Tools is unable to set the network device correctly for the virtual machine, and displays a message similar to the following: [text] Unloading pcnet32 module unregister_netdevice: waiting…

Defining delegated route /48 from Hurricane Electric in Appropriate way.
I’ve been thinking on how to create reverse zone for /64 subnet from delegated routed /48 from Hurricane Electric. First when i was first time request delegation for routed /48 i’ve defined this configuration on my nameservers
In named.conf
zone "7.e.8.f.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa" {
type master;
file "reverse-2001-470-f8e7_48.IP6.ARPA";
};
