It asks for IPv4 Label, address and netmask. What is label? Ah. Help explains it. Still, no IPv6 support in Yast :-(
In all the years I've been running IPv6, I've never had to manually configure an IPv6 address. It normally happens automagically.
And I have never had it happen automatically, because no provider provides IPv6 here.
As far as we know, it is going to be IPv4 for ever. Those histories about IPv4 running out and having to implement IPv6 now yes or yes, were all lies {sarcastic}. I don't know if I'll ever see IPv6 before I go gaga.
Yes, that might be too late already :-) There is plenty of IPv6 about, judging by clients accessing our openSUSE mirror, some major users are: Germany (35-40% of all access is IPv6) France (35-40%) Belgium, Greece, Switzerland, Portugal (all 25-30%).
In Europe we find countries with an average of 12%, with Spain being one of the countries in the European Union where there is the least adoption with 0.11%.
On our mirror, Spain IPv6 access is less than 2%. You're not alone, Italy is also around 2%.
With pfSense, you could configure it to use SLAAC or DHCPv6 to assign addresses.
Well, the router is ISP provided and I can not change it, so there is nothing of that. And no point in setting it up, as there is no IPv6 to internet.
You could do what many did in the early beginning - use a tunnel. I think there are still some providers out there. (Hurricane Electric maybe). Wow, just had a look at when I started with an IPv6 tunnel .... 2006. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (22.5°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
