hi

i have a few dedicated server from @dacentec

i have just received a /48 ipv6 from @dacentec

now suppose the ipv6 is '1234:4567:abcd:0000::1/48'

and i enter the ipv6 for my box as 1234:4567:abcd:1::1/64 using 1234:4567:abcd:0000::1 as gateway, and when i bring up the interface, it says WARN : [ipv6_add_route] 'No route to host' adding route '::/0' via gateway '1234:4567:abcd:0000::1' through device ''

any help i a can do something or will the DC be required to route the ipv6 to my box....

    auto eth0
    iface eth0 inet6 static
         address 1234:4567:abcd:0000::2
         netmask 48
         gateway 1234:4567:abcd:0000::1
    
    

    1234:4567:abcd:1::1 <-- you need to specify this as a /48 mask.

    That is just an example config I made for /etc/network/interfaces

    auto eth0 is what starts the nic.

    hahaha

    my configuration was ok

    it was some routing problem from @dacentec, my upstream provider

    the gateway was un-pingable

    now with the help of @dacentec every thing is fine

    thanks @Mun
