Since 2.3.0, OpenVPN officially supports IPv6, and all widely used patches floating around for older versions have been integrated. IPv6 payload support -------------------- This is for "IPv6 inside OpenVPN", with server-pushed IPv6 configuration on the client, and support for IPv6 configuration on the tun/tap interface from within the openvpn config. The code in 2.3.0 supersedes the IPv6 payload patches from Gert Doering, formerly located at http://www.greenie.net/ipv6/openvpn.html The following options have been added to handle IPv6 configuration, analogous to their IPv4 counterparts (--server <-> --server-ipv6, etc.) - server-ipv6 - ifconfig-ipv6 - ifconfig-ipv6-pool - ifconfig-ipv6-push - route-ipv6 - iroute-ipv6 see "man openvpn" for details how they are used. IPv6 transport support ---------------------- This is to enable OpenVPN peers or client/servers to talk to each other over an IPv6 network ("OpenVPN over IPv6"). The code in 2.3.0 supersedes the IPv6 transport patches from JuanJo Ciarlante, formerly located at http://github.com/jjo/openvpn-ipv6 OpenVPN 2.4.0 includes a big overhaul of the IPv6 transport patches originally implemented for the Android client (ics-openvpn) IPv4/IPv6 transport is automatically is selected when resolving addresses. Use a 6 or 4 suffix to force IPv6/IPv4: --proto udp6 --proto tcp4 --proto tcp6-client --proto tcp4-server --proto tcp6 --client / --proto tcp6 --server On systems that allow IPv4 connections on IPv6 sockets (all systems supporting IPV6_V6ONLY setsockopt), an OpenVPN server can handle IPv4 connections on the IPv6 socket as well, making it a true dual-stacked server. Use bind ipv6only to disable this behaviour. On other systems, as of 2.3.0, you need to run separate server instances for IPv4 and IPv6.
