disable IPv6 for a client

Hi Forum,
with last version of OpenVPN connect for iPhone (or for another Platforms), I could disable the IPv6 for just one client through ovpn file with these commands:
push-filter ignore ipv6-route
push-filter ignore ifconfig-ipv6
but now I see that the both commands are under „UNUSED OPTIONS“ in the log file!
is there an another option to disable IPv6 for a client?
Thanks

Configure your server to not push IPv6 to the client.

but another clients should have access to IPv6 network… it worked earlier, & now this option is not more supported!… any another solution?

The server can push different things to different clients.

Thank you for your trick, I solved it
in client specific overrides:
push-remove ifconfig-ipv6;push-remove route-ipv6
it will work (because it is configured on the server) with any platform!…

in client specific overrides, add these lines to disable ipv6:
push-remove ifconfig-ipv6;push-remove route-ipv6

You can configure your client to ignore the pushed IPv6 configuration by including the following two lines in your OpenVPN client config file:
Code: Select all
pull-filter ignore "ifconfig-ipv6"
pull-filter ignore "route-ipv6"
