Each of these examples assume an IPv6 subnet of 2001:db8:1000::/64. You will need to update them with the subnet that you have been assigned.

We will be using 2001:db8:1000::100 as the main IPv6 address to assign. We will also be configuring 2001:db8:1000::200 as a secondary IPv6 address. Adding a secondary IPv6 is not necessary, but it shows the process you would use if you wanted multiple IPv6 addresses.

Important Note: If you add an IPv6 subnet to an existing machine, you must restart the server via the Vultr control panel before IPv6 will work. Restarting via SSH or similar is not sufficient. IPv6 would not work at all until the server has been restarted. This does not apply if you have selected IPv6 during the initial server deployment.

In the Vultr control panel, there are configuration examples generated for each of your VMs. These are located under the VM's IPv6 settings, labeled "See configuration examples or documentation.".

CentOS 6, CentOS 7

Add the following lines to the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file.

IPV6INIT="yes"
IPV6ADDR="2001:db8:1000::100/64"
IPV6_AUTOCONF="yes"
IPV6ADDR_SECONDARIES="2001:db8:1000::200/64"

Restart networking or reboot.

service network restart

If you have IP forwarding enabled (using your server as a VPN or similar), you will also need to add the following lines to the /etc/sysctl.conf file. The default settings for these variables (which is 1), prevents IPv6 from working properly when IP forwarding is enabled. You can check if IP forwarding is enabled by running "sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward".

net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra=2
net.ipv6.conf.eth0.accept_ra=2
