IPV6 DHCP

Crogic

I am having trouble getting IPV6 to work on my Debian server.I have a /64 shared among my VMs and I'm trying to get an address using DHCP but I keep getting "Network is unreachable".

Here's my /etc/network interfaces file:

auto venet0:0
iface venet0:0 inet static
        address IPV4
        netmask 255.255.255.255

auto venet0:1
iface venet0:1 inet6 auto

I'm running Debian 7 on OpenVZ.

venet doesn't let you configure IPs, you'll need veth if you want control over your network interfaces. All IPs (both v4 and v6) are assigned from the host node.

Thanks @KuJoe! I didn't knew that.
