This is an architecture guide for IPv6 on ClearOS 6.x. This guide discusses the format for IPv6 structures within ClearOS and is designed to be a howto for current users as well as a structure guide for future development and modules.

To enable ClearOS for IPv6 support, validate that following setting in /etc/sysconfig/network:

NETWORKING_IPV6=yes

For each IPv6 enabled interface you will update the following:

IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6ADDR=<IPv6-IP-Address>
IPV6_DEFAULTGW=<IPv6-IP-Gateway-Address>

Your interface may look like this (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0):

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL="no"
HWADDR=00:11:22:33:44:55
IPADDR=1.2.3.4
GATEWAY=1.2.3.1
NETMASK=255.255.255.248
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6ADDR=1234:0000:1000:0011:0000:0000:0102:0304
IPV6_DEFAULTGW=1234:0000:1000:0011:0000:0000:0102:0301
