> I deployed a dual ipv4 + ipv6 stack on my home lan a few years ago. I got myself a /48 from hurricane electric, and did everything like it's in the book: SLAAC for subnets, fixed addresses on servers, every device had a public ipv6 and the firewall allowed or denied stuff. Everything worked as it should work. One day something stopped working on the he tunnel
If your IPv4 address changes, you need to re-start the tunnel.
I ran a setup like this, but since the closest HE tunnelbroker end-point was 180+ms away I configured radvd to only advertise to the RIPE Atlas probe I was running at the time, so only my gateway/firewall and the Atlas probe were IPv6 enabled.
My ISP can't enable IPv6 because the last-mile ISP, who does layer-3 hand-over uses half-duplex MPLS VPNs for traffic hand-over (separate VPNs for each ISP), and the equipment (Cisco and Alcatel-Lucent BNGs) in use doesn't support Half-Duplex VRF for IPv6 (only IPv4). I am not aware of another last-mile fixed-line provider (there are quite a few here) that supports IPv6 at all. When I enquired with one of them, they indicated that it was on their roadmap (or backlog, they didn't have any idea of timeline ...).
