  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

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?
