Operations grimoire/IPv6

Nasqueron uses a dual-stack IPv4/IPv6, as far as possible for public ICANNnet addresses.

Depending of the servers, this can use a Hurricane Electric tunnel, or native network IPv6 from Scaleway or OVH networks.

Configuration can be found in rOPS: roles/core/network.

Notes about ISP

Online assigns /48 prefix by account, /56 prefix by server. A prefix is protected by DUID, so DCHP client use is mandatory.

There is no available gateway information.

Routing seems stable, if we can figure the route to the gateway first.

OVH assigns /64 prefix, with a gateway outside (it's in the /56), without DUID security.

Routing is capricious, with routes suddenly stopping to work.

It works really fine, but a 30 ms penalty lag can sometimes be applied by comparison of native solutions. Yet, sometimes, it can be faster.

As DCHP client, isc-dhcp44-client works fine. Previously, we used Dibbler, but it's unmaintained.
