    Hi, I have a new internet provider at home. Until now I only had IPv 4, but now I also have IPv6. The setup worked perfectly, when I configured to redirect all traffic via VPN, all my accesses to sites with IPv4 show IP Cloudron.

    The problem arises when I access sites that accept IPv6, in these cases the address of my ISP is displayed.
    Can I add IPv 6 to my VPN?

      @archos the VPN tunnels for ipv4 and ipv6 are independent and the current openvpn app only has ipv4 tunnel support. I think @girish is looking into a fix for this, however even then it also depends on the openvpn client configuration to setup both.

      In the meantime, can you try to connect only via ipv4 to this specific site? Then it would always go through your tunnel.

        @archos yes, I am working on figuring out the best solution here. 7.1.4 has a small fix to make the openvpn app tun work with ipv6 - https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/6654/cloudron-7-1-released/2 .

            @girish One more question, please. I updated Cloudron to version 7.1.4, enabled IPv 6 in the settings, which automatically loaded. Synchronized DNS, but IPv 6 I still have my ISP at . What else do I need to do please?
            Thank you very much.

              @archos OK, I finally figured this one out.

              IPv6 tunneling is coming soon!

                  This is fixed in the latest package. You have to update to Cloudron 7.2.1 to get the latest package.

                    @archos Do what most other sensible IT Pros do: Disable IPv6 for as long as possible 😉
