IPv6
Prefix delegation with fixed DUID
Sometimes the hosting provider manages ipv6 networks via a so-called DUID or clientid. This snippet is required to make the network routable:
{ config, pkgs, ... }: let # Get this from your hosting provider clientid = "00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77:88:99"; interface = "enp2s0"; subnet = "56"; network = "2001:bbb:3333:1111::/${subnet}"; own_ip = "2001:bbb:3333:1111::1/${subnet}"; in { # ... snip ... networking.enableIPv6 = true; networking.useDHCP = true; networking.dhcpcd.persistent = true; networking.dhcpcd.extraConfig = '' clientid "${clientid}" noipv6rs interface ${interface} ia_pd 1/${network} ${interface} static ip6_address=${own_ip} ''; environment.etc."dhcpcd.duid".text = clientid; }
