Understand your IPv6 allocation
Every EDIS Global VPS receives its own IPv6 allocation equivalent in size to a /64. This allocation belongs to that VPS, but it is not routed as a separate /64 subnet.
Each EDIS Global server location operates within a shared /48 IPv6 network and has its own default gateway. To reach that gateway, configure every IPv6 address on your VPS with a /48 prefix length.
Configuring an address with /48 does not allocate the location’s complete
/48 to your VPS. Use only addresses from the allocation assigned to your
VPS.
ip command.
The following commands use example values. Replace the address, gateway, and interface with the values shown for your VPS.
Add an IPv6 address:
Display configured IPv6 addresses:
You may configure up to 20 stable IPv6 addresses from the allocation assigned to the VPS at the same time.
Add the location-specific default gateway:
Display the configured route:
Every server location has its own IPv6 gateway. Always use the exact gateway
shown in the VPS Management Portal or welcome email; do not derive or guess
it from the example above.
IPv6 address configured but not reachable? Try pinging the gateway from
the affected IPv6 address. This may help the router learn the address in its
Neighbor Discovery cache.Replace the address after -I with an IPv6 address already configured on your
VPS, and the final address with your exact location-specific gateway. Repeat
for each affected address, then test reachability from an external IPv6 host.
Pinging from one address may not make the other configured addresses reachable. IPv6 usage restrictions
IPv6 proxy services that rotate addresses, automatically generate random addresses, or cycle through large numbers of addresses are prohibited. Configuring more than 20 IPv6 addresses simultaneously can overload the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery cache.
Violations will result in service suspension. Repeated violations will result in permanent account termination without refund. See the Acceptable Use Policy.
If IPv6 remains unavailable after checking these settings, continue with IPv6 troubleshooting.
