Recently I bought vps which have only ipv6. It’s obviously that I don’t have ipv6 home. So, here is question: how do you interact with such servers?
You must log in or register to comment.
First questio is: can you ask your home internet provider for ipv6?
Otherwise sign up to tailscale and connect your vps server (and your pc/devices) to it.
Can’t ask ISP D:
Used to have miredo, which worked pretty well, but think they killed that.
Should still have old 6to4 protocols, they use ipv4 address tricks to get everything working.
There are tunnel protocols like 6to4, 6RD and so on to allow you to get an IPv6 connection tunneled to you. Various routers do support it.
Another option is to ask your ISP if he will supply a IPv6 subnet to you.
have you tried using a vpn, e.g. tailscale?
extremely easy to set up, if you are a selfhost purist, there’s headscale as a direct alternative.
only really good at doing stuff in a personal workspace, not really made for exposing to the public internet, still very possible tho
how can I use vpn for it? I have another vps with both ipv4 and 6. But I can’t find solution for it.
Great, if you need to SSH into Ipv6 only machine, SSH has -J flag which can be used to specify “jump host” (basically run SSH through SSH)
what if I want to host something on it? I need reverse proxy?
