How Activate IPv6 On OpenVPN AccessServer Web Panel Latest Version On CentOS

Post by SMQS.500 » Sun Jul 09, 2023 8:08 am

I am using latest version of OpenVPN AccessServer On CentOS 7.

I saw some threads on OpenVPN web site for activate IPv6.

https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/IPv6

and

https://openvpn.net/vpn-server-resources/limited-ipv6-support-built-into-the-access-server/


But most of them are depricated & it seems those are for time before running AS on web.
How can i Activate IPv6 On OpenVPN AccessServer Web Panel At This Time?
What is the quickest way for this job?
In AS web panel i did n't see any options for set IPv6.
In Network Settings area we only can set IPv4.

Hello,

The instructions are still up-to-date for the latest versions of OpenVPN Access Server. It must be configured on the command line first, but the fields that take IP addresses on the GUI can also take IPv6 addresses.

We realize that IPv6 support is not what it should be. This is something we do intend to solve, but it is a matter of priorities.

Kind regards,

Ok.
Thanks.
Would you please tell which link should i use and tell all commands here step by step to follow and show which part of GUI we should change?
I asked this Q because i think those commands do not work anymore cause there is no config file for AS like before & OpenVPN moved it to a SQLite db.
So for clarification re enter all necessary commands here to follow and date of this thread is up to date.

Hello,

For community version of OpenVPN (it might be outdated documentation as it is community version):
https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/IPv6

For OpenVPN Access Server (still up to date as it is still valid for current Access Server version):
https://openvpn.net/vpn-server-resource ... ss-server/

If you have problems you might want to reach out to our support on https://openvpn.net/support

I don't think it makes sense for me to copy/paste the contents of the existing document.

Kind regards,
