hi
i have a few dedicated server from @dacentec
i have just received a /48 ipv6 from @dacentec
now suppose the ipv6 is '1234:4567:abcd:0000::1/48'
and i enter the ipv6 for my box as 1234:4567:abcd:1::1/64 using 1234:4567:abcd:0000::1 as gateway, and when i bring up the interface, it says WARN : [ipv6_add_route] 'No route to host' adding route '::/0' via gateway '1234:4567:abcd:0000::1' through device ''
any help i a can do something or will the DC be required to route the ipv6 to my box....

auto eth0 iface eth0 inet6 static address 1234:4567:abcd:0000::2 netmask 48 gateway 1234:4567:abcd:0000::11234:4567:abcd:1::1 <-- you need to specify this as a /48 mask.
you mean to add auto to eth0 in the device
That is just an example config I made for /etc/network/interfaces
auto eth0 is what starts the nic.

hahaha
my configuration was ok
it was some routing problem from @dacentec, my upstream provider
the gateway was un-pingable
now with the help of @dacentec every thing is fine
thanks @Mun
