No, $ apt-get install ifupdown redo your network config with /etc/network/interfaces and $ apt-get autoremove --purge netplan.io Does not work if you not purge netplan. If installed, netplan insist to generate volatile config for networkd (/run/systemd/network/10-netplan-your_interface.network) with ipv6 options applied by networkd. It is not a kernel or systemd bug, but another netplan bug. If you do not want to go back to ifupdown, it's time to learn networkd. For server use, netplan is totally useless and only add a layer of potential new problems. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771222 Title: Using sysctl to permanently disable IPv6 doesn't have any effect Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Shows up in version 18.04 of Ubuntu.

Shows up in 16.04.5 (4.15.0-43-generic) too. In the end, despite all the above ipv6.disable = 1 additions to sysctl.conf and reboots, the only sure-fire way I found to reliably disable ipv6 was to add ipv6.disable=1 to grub: $ grep ip /etc/default/grub GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="ipv6.disable=1 quiet splash" $ sudo update-grub $ sudo reboot -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771222 Title: Using sysctl to permanently disable IPv6 doesn't have any effect Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Shows up in version 18.04 of Ubuntu.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1771222] Re: Using sysctl to permanently disable IPv6 doesn't have any effect
This issue appears to be an upstream bug, since you tested the latest upstream kernel. Would it be possible for you to open an upstream bug report[0]? That will allow the upstream Developers to examine the issue, and may provide a quicker resolution to the bug. Please follow the instructions on the wiki page[0]. The first step is to email the appropriate mailing list. If no response is received, then a bug may be opened on bugzilla.kernel.org. Once this bug is reported upstream, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug- reported-upstream'.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.17 kernel[0]. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed". Thanks in advance.
