Public bug reported: Hello,
Periodically our OpenVPN sessions fail in such a way that automated tooling that talks to Launchpad will take minutes before timing out. See https://portal.admin.canonical.com/132804 for details. We've found that manually disabling ipv6 helps, eg: sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1 The network-manager-openvpn portion of the bug is that we've got IPv6 set to "disabled" in the network manager vpn GUI. Somehow this isn't sufficient on its own. The sysctl does the trick.
