Nagios itself has no issues with IPv6 - the IP you enter in the "address" field is just a string passed around. So any issue you could encounter would be with plugins, eventhandlers, and everything else that runs from Nagios and use the $HOSTADDRESS$ macro. Most of the standard Nagios plugins should be IPv6-compatible already, if you encounter any issues with them, you can point it out on the Nagiosplug-devel mailing list. If you encounter issues with 3rd-party plugins you'll have to get it fixed by the author or fix it yourself.
