<div>At the time of this writing, IPv6 support in guests requires you to apply an additional patch on top of the Linux-VServer patch. The IPv6 patch can be fetched from the official source: [http://people.linux-vserver.org/~bonbons/ipv6/ Bruno Prémont's IPv6 patches], and sometimes rediffs against later kernels are available from [http://people.linux-vserver.org/~dhozac/p/k/ my patch directory].<br />
<br />
To use the patch, you need util-vserver 0.30.212 or newer. These versions support IPv6 natively, so you just need to put the address in <code>/etc/vservers/<guest>/interfaces/X/ip</code> and start the guest to get it an IPv6 address.<br />
<br />
<br />
Starting with linux-vserver-2.3 IPv6 support is included in the main source code. No need to apply any extra patches. You will need to have util-vserver 0.30.214 or newer if you are using the 2.3+ patches. There is no need to add the prefix into <code>/etc/vservers/<guest>/interfaces/X/prefix</code>.</div>
