Hi all,
I’ve a working setup on a virtualization host with two NIC’s, one for LAN and the other for DMZ. The host itself is only accessible on the LAN NIC. The containers (openvz) are connected to either one of the NIC’s. Both NIC’s are connected to a router/firewall that routes between WAN, DMZ and LAN. My network is dual stack. This setup is currently working for both IPv4 and IPv6, but has two strange issues with IPv6: 1. IPv6 only works if I disable RA’s on the DMZ side of the router. When enabled, the DMZ NIC, that does not have IP’s configured for the hardware node itself, will auto configure IPv6, even if I set net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra = 0. The LAN NIC that has an IPv6 address and all containers will lose their IPv6 connectivity both on DMZ and on the LAN side. Disabling RA on the router’s DMZ interface is no problem, but it’s still strange. What could be the cause? 2. Without the RA, the containers have full IPv6 connectivity. The hardware node however does have a LAN IPv6 address, but can’t be reached. On the LAN I get a ‘no route to host’ error. It seems as even though the LAN NIC / bridge has an IPv6, it doesn’t advertise itself accordingly on the LAN. The setup seems fine, the routing seems fine, but I can neither ssh -6 nor ping6 to or from the hardware node. What could I do / test to solve this issue?
