Issue IPv6 - unreachable domain

Hi all,

We are testing websites installation with IPv6.
All the configuration goes smoothly.

But when we want to access to the website, we can not (timeout , not recheable).
We can not "ping" also.

We thought of a problem with the firewall. We lifted all ipv6 rules.

Code:
ip6tables -F
ip6tables -X
ip6tables -t nat -F
ip6tables -t nat -X
ip6tables -t mangle -F
ip6tables -t mangle -X
ip6tables -P INPUT ACCEPT
ip6tables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
ip6tables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT

but no effect.

# dig +short aaaa mydomain.com
2001:41d0:x:x:x:1
#ping mydomain.com
Send request 'ping' to mydomain.com [2001:41d0:x:x:x:1]....
--- mydomain.com ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 4054ms
# ip6tables -S
-P INPUT ACCEPT
-P FORWARD ACCEPT
-P OUTPUT ACCEPT

Do you an idea for the problem?

Thank you.

Erwan
 
Did you also configure (assign) an IPv6 address to that domain in Plesk via example.com -> Hosting & DNS -> Web Hosting Access?

From outside.

Traceroute from outside does not arrive.
Traceroute from server arrive:
# traceroute -6 mydomain.com
traceroute to mydomain.com (2001:41d0:x:x:x:1), 30 hops max, 80 byte packets
1 reverseip... (2001:41d0:x:x:x:1) 0.050 ms 0.018 ms 0.016 ms

I can ping from inside.
I can not ping from outside.

No problem with IPv4 : i can ping or traceroute from outside or on the server.

I don't understand...
There seems to be an ipv6 usage restriction somewhere but I can't see where.

I've used the same process an another server and no problem, Ipv6 works.
 
Check if IPv6 (inet6) is enabled in /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/network/interfaces.d/* and if you have a valid route.

And does your PC (the outside) has iPv6 enabled and your ISP can use IPv6?
 
Traceroute from server arrive:
# traceroute -6 mydomain.com
traceroute to mydomain.com (2001:41d0:x:x:x:1), 30 hops max, 80 byte packets
1 reverseip... (2001:41d0:x:x:x:1) 0.050 ms 0.018 ms 0.016 ms

What happens when you traceroute from your server to another? Your other server? Your provider?

I can ping from inside.
Ping where? Your own IP6 or another?

Did you triple-check you correctly configured the IP6 (range) your provider assigned to you?
