Prefix delegation IPv6 for Sky network
« on: January 29, 2018, 08:10:12 PM »

Would someone be able to give me a definite answer whether the IPv6 prefix length on Sky is /56 or /64 ?

Tia.

I think whatever you select will be overridden but if you prefer to use the correct one go 56

It wouldn't matter if you make it /64 for one LAN surely.

And one last thing: once enabled IPv6 in the router why I can't ping an IPv6 address ???

I open a command prompt window, and if I try ping -4 google.com I get
Code: [Select]

But if I try ping -6 google.com then I can't

I get
    2a00:1450:4009:802::200e
for google.com, and I can successfully ping it, because I have an ISP and kit that supports IPv6. And no firewall rules that block this.

What happens if you traceroute to it?

Display your routing table too.

How do we check your firewalling state, from outside?

If I telnet to the R7000 then I can ping IPv4 and IPv6 with no problems at all from the router itself  :baby:

perhaps there is a host firewall? turn off any firewall on your own pc?

Actually, wait a minute, presumably you can IPv6-ping your own router? Looks like that's a ‘no’ from the tracert?

must be a setting on the r7000 ipv6 config. what's your router and client config? have you added ipv6 dns servers on the router as such as Google or open dns
