Prometeus - Your 'net consultants !

I just picked up a KVMSSD2 plan, which comes with a /112 IPv6 block. The link in the VPS welcome e-mail included a link to prometeus.net/returnipv6.php?IP=SERVER_IP, which gave me details about the /112. I tried to access a few of the addresses in the block stated, but it would always time out. So I ask: do I need to do do some networking config on the OS (which, in my case, is Ubuntu), or perhaps in SolusVM to get that block to respond? I found this article: does it apply, and if so, what changes to I need to make since I have a /112 not a /64?

Hello !

Yes, you need to configure the os with the specific /112. It does not work through DHCP.
But you actually get 2 rounds of IPv6, besides the allocation of the /112, the other block is related to your MAC. It should be visible with ifconfig if you configured the os to accept IPv6. The MAC /64 is automatic.
