OCI: How to Configure IPv6 Addresses on Oracle Linux Instances

in Linux

Applies To:

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure - Version N/A and later

Linux x86-64

Goal:

This document details how to configure IPv6 addresses to a vNIC on an Oracle Linux instance or similar Linux flavors.

To enable IPv6 for a given VNIC, assign an IPv6 address to the VNIC. These IP addresses can be assigned from multiple IPv6 prefixes if they are assigned to the subnet. As with IPv4, when assigning an IPv6 address, can also specify a specific address intended for use, or let Oracle choose one for the user.

After assigning an IPv6 address to the VNIC, must configure the OS to use IPv6. This document outlines the steps required to setup and configure IPv6 on an Oracle Linux or Centos/Red Hat instance.
