My home Internet provider also does not offer IPv6. My idea is to test in LAN. Usually every IPv6 capable host in LAN gets a link-local address in network fe80::/64. So you can try to test with a local IPv6 address to access e.g. password protected Apache folders multiple times until Fail2ban fires.
Unfortunately I can run this with IPv4, but IPv6 gives me an error. Ideas?
You're better off testing with Unique Local Addresses, which are the IPv6 equivalent of IPv4 RFC 1918 addresses. The problem with link local addresses is they're often difficult to work with. You have to specify the interface to be used and some apps, such as browsers, tend not to work with them. You can create a ULA prefix by appending 10 random hex digits to f8. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unique_local_address -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
