I'd check first that some other addresses from this /64 range are routed by your VPS provider. > There are many 'quick config' tutorials on the web, but none seem to > suit my objectives, the most enlightened being > https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/IPv6, but I'm tripping over > the stanza: > > ### check this on your OS! > # ifconfig igb0 inet6 2001:db8:0:123::/64 -alias > # ifconfig igb0 inet6 2001:db8:0:123::/65 > ### > ### re-assign the other aliases previously set under the /64 block > # ifconfig igb0 inet6 2001:db8:0:123::dead/128 alias > # ifconfig igb0 inet6 2001:db8:0:123::ea:beef/128 alias > # ... > > which seems to apply to FreeBSD.
