Self Hosting on Unifi IPv6
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 ноя 2024
- This video is a very simple introduction to how to self host an application via IPv6 on a Ubiquiti Unifi router. Due to worldwide IPv4 address pool exhaustion, IPv6 was ratified as a standard in December of 1998 by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It has been ratified as an official Internet standard as of July 14, 2017. Support for IPv6 is in all major operating systems.
For more understanding of IPv6, see my video entitled 'Self Hosting to Infinity and Beyond'. I also have a three part blog series on IPv6 entitled "The Joys of IPv6" on the blog section of my website at www.scottibyte....

Extremely useful video. I wasn't sure how to set up my firewall rules, but now everything works great!
I am really glad to hear that. If you have any questions, come on out to chat.scottibyte.com and ask away.
Very precise and helpful video, thanks!
Explains ipv6 very simply. Useful for hosting multiple services on the same ports from home; and all in 13 minutes.
I know what I'll be doing tomorrow.
@Marc, glad it was helpful. I am amazed how little attention that IpV6 hosting seems to receive.
Nice video. One question? If I have multiple networks (like you have), will I leave DHCPv6 Range :: 2 :: 7d1 on all networks?
Let me see if I can answer this question in the direction you are wanting. Your ISP provides you a DHCPv6 prefix allocation which is HUGE. So, each of your VLAN nodes will get DHCPv6 global addresses in the overall prefix allocation range. So, it's not like there is a unique address range for each VLAN. The tagged VLAN number tells the router on which VLAN to route the traffic. Also, IPv6 traffic is not broadcast based like IPv4 traffic and most folks run IPv4 and IPv6 on the same VLAN. I have a three part blog entitled "The Joys of IPv6" on my website at www.scottibyte.com/. You may also like to follow some of my other IPv6 videos and my VLAN videos to fill in the blank spots. I have noticed that my router fills in my DHCPv6 range on all my VLANs where IPv6 is enabled to be the same giant range. As for the link local "fe80" addresses, they are determined by a combination of your prefix and your mac address.
What if you isp issues ipv6 slacc? Is there a work around
Most ISPs use DHCPv6 with RA (Router Advertisement) and PD (Prefix Delegation). You must also allow ICMPv6 to be routed on your LAN. This really amounts to Stateless Address Auto-Configuration (SLAAC) and can automatically configure IPv6 host parameters on an IPv6 host with no need to configure a DHCPv6 server. Hope this helps.
One question - how do you find the IPv6 address for your server on a vlan on a unifi router? Thanks for the video. Good start for me.
The Unifi controller program does not have a GUI screen that lists the IPv6 address for a particular client. Assuming you have IPv6 configured on your vlan, the place to go is the particular client OS and do an ifconfig command. Chat on chat.scottibyte.com/.
