Hi Herbert, > please keep this discussion going (maybe some typical > ipv6 examples or so?) so we can get a feeling for it.
what kind of "typical example" are you asking for? The default IPv6 address style is quite forward to the ipv4 notation (well, same logic applies, but a slightly changed notation): an ipv6 address would be: 2001:abcd:ef01::1/64 where the :: is an abbreviation for "fill up with all 0 here.. Thus the full length notation is: 2001:abcd:ef01:0000:0000:0000:0000:0001 which may be found with "ipv6calc -i -m 2001:abcd:ef01::1". The /64 is the prefix length which makes the local prefix be: 2001:abcd:ef01:0000 Length of IPv6 is 128bit in 8 blocks written in hex. Each of the blocks is 2 bytes which makes an overall of 8*16=128 bit. There's special target prefixes for site-local and link-local yet that might be rather a routing question and transparent to the vserver, but i'm not sure. Please ask for further hints if you need some. -- Best regards, Kilian
