Hi !
I've been searching the forum and the internets for 3 days now without any success, so I'm opening this post.

I've been trying to setup IPv6 on my 11.1RELEASE iocage jails, but have failed.
The IPv6 addresses seem to work (they're here ?), but if i ping or try to access the web server of the jail, it goes to the FreeNAS box : passthrough to the jail isn't there (?)
Same things happen from across the internet, from an other computer on my local network, or from the FreeNAS box itself (an ssh to the jail's IPv6 goes to the FreeNAS box)

my setup :
- on the freenas box
Code:
root@fnas:~ # ifconfig

the box in itself :
old Gigabyte Mobo for dual AMD Opteron 2373 EE
32Go DDR2 ECC
single pair of same brand on board GB NIC

the jail is perfectly accessible from IPv4.
but having the crappy ISP router i have, I need to use IPv6 to circumvent the lack of loopback or DNS setup functionalities, as well as the semi dynamic IPv4 address (may or may not change upon a router reboot, purely random)

I could use some pointers, or some voodoo even.

so, IPv6 isn't working at all before 11.2 rolls out ?
how much would 'few weeks' be ?

so, i've upgraded to nightlies, and i'm now on 11.2

I have the exact same problem :
the freenas box answers in place of the jails even when i'm trying to reach the jails IPv6.

this is driving me nuts :>

edit : figured it out

using vnet, i could make IPv6 work fine
I just had to find that you need to set a tunable to include the physical NIC you want the jails on to be able to access the internet, or it just stays a jail only "network"

as a reference to future people having the problem and finding this post :

this is what you should include in your tunables, after adding the VirtIO capability to your jail and rebooting the freenas box :
variable : ifconfig_vnetX where X is the number for your vnet where your jails are attaching to
value : addm NIC up where NIC is the name of your physical NIC you want to jails to be able to access
type : rc.conf

@seedz. Tried adding the tunable, but unfortunately I still do not get any IPV6 address inside the jail. Any further suggestions?

i've lost IPv6 from router, but !
I had it working for a while by making a script that would go on start up :
Code:
ifconfig epair0b inet6 auto_linklocal
ifconfig epair0b inet6 accept_rtadv
service rtsold start
/sbin/ping6 -c 10 google.com


of course, you must add rtsold_enable="YES"

Thx, this seems to work and to assign the jail an IPv6 address. Anyway this seems to be a little bit hacky. Is there really no out-of-the-box way to do this?

Since 11.2-RC2 the UI (jail configuration) enabled "autocinfigure ipv6". But unfortunately this does exactly nothing :(

OK, i've managed to get this working now. I extended seedz's script to also let nginx (serving nextcloud inside the jail) to listen to ipv6 requests. This works for me.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Manually configure IPv6 in jail
# and let nginx also listen on ipv6
#
# /etc/rc.d/setup_ipv6
#

set -e
set -u

# Let jail get an IPv6 address from router
ifconfig epair0b inet6 auto_linklocal
ifconfig epair0b inet6 accept_rtadv
service rtsold start || true

# check if nginx runs with IPv6 and restart if not
if ! grep -Eq "listen \[::\]*" /usr/local/etc/nginx/conf.d/nextcloud.conf; then
  sed -ie "/listen 80;/a\\
  listen [::]:80;\\
" /usr/local/etc/nginx/conf.d/nextcloud.conf
  service nginx restart
  echo "replaced nginx nextcloud config and restarted nginx"
else
  echo "nothing to do"
fi

place this file in /etc/rc.d/ inside the jail. BTW I'm using the standrad plugin jail in 11.2-RC2.

This is still broken in 11.2 release.
The fix still works (I didn't need to do anything to my tunables), and I've added the script to my rc.d, but is there a bug filed on this yet?

Despite the name, that's a bog standard iocage jail, not the prebuilt plex plugin jail.

Click to expand...

To clarify: the output you posted is due to applying the script? As in, IPv6 wasn't working out of the box?

If so, please create a ticket at bugs.freenas.org as IPv6 should be working for 11.2-RELEASE.
