This guide is for homelab admins who understand IPv4s well but find setting up IPv6 hard or annoying because things work differently. In some ways, managing an IPv6 network can be simpler than IPv4, one just needs to learn some new concepts and discard some old ones.
Let’s begin.
First of all, there are some concepts that one must unlearn from ipv4:
Concept 1
| # to add to your ~/.bashrc or your ~/.zshrc file. Usage: $ go switch 1.18.1 | |
| function go() { | |
| case $* in | |
| switch* ) | |
| shift 1 | |
| gobindir=$(go env GOBIN) | |
| # adapt to a valid directory at the beginning of your $PATH if you're not on systemd | |
| homebindir=$(systemd-path user-binaries) | |
| go install golang.org/dl/go"$@"@latest | |
| $gobindir/go"$@" download |
| #!/bin/sh | |
| # | |
| # Run this script on relay_server to connect shared session | |
| # | |
| read -p "Port number: " relay_port | |
| socat file:`tty`,raw,echo=0 tcp-connect:localhost:${relay_port} |

| 66.155.0.0/16 0; | |
| 76.74.0.0/16 0; | |
| } |
| Execute the following command and make a note of X-Auth-Token. You will need this token to use in all subsequent commands. | |
| curl -v -H 'X-Storage-User: system:root' -H 'X-Storage-Pass: testpass' http://10.80.83.68:8077/auth/v1.0 | |
| In the following command examples we are using 'AUTH_tk65840af9f6f74d1aaefac978cb8f0899' as the X-Auth-Token. Replace this with the appropriate token you obtained in the above step. | |
| To create a container: | |
| curl -X PUT -H 'X-Auth-Token: AUTH_tk65840af9f6f74d1aaefac978cb8f0899' http://10.80.83.68:8077/v1/AUTH_system/mycontainer | |
| To list all containers in current account: |
