How to setup IPv6 assignments within a Windows Server 2016 VM on a Debian VirtualBox host?












1















I want to assign an Windows Server 2016 VM a dedicated IPv4 and IPv6. The VM runs on a Debian 9 system using VirtualBox 6.0 with KVM for virtualization.



I have the following IP addresses assigned to my server:




  • 198.51.100.36

  • 198.51.100.164

  • 2001:DB8::2

  • 2001:DB8::164


On my host, I have the following /etc/network/interfaces configuration:



auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 198.51.100.36
netmask 255.255.255.255
gateway 198.51.100.33
pointopoint 198.51.100.33

iface eth0 inet6 static
address 2001:DB8::2
netmask 64
gateway fe80::1


The VirtualBox VM's virtual network card is configured as follows:




NIC 1: MAC: AFFEAFFE00A4, Attachment: Bridged Interface 'eth0', Cable connected: on, Trace: off (file:
none), Type: 82540EM, Reported speed: 0 Mbps, Boot priority: 0,
Promisc Policy: deny, Bandwidth group: none




Within the Windows VM, I have configured the interface likewise with IPv4 and IPv6:
Windows Network Connection Details



The issue is, that the VM does not have any IPv6 connection (reported):



Windows Network Connection Status



How to enable IPv6 communication?

  • You put in fake information, so it's not really possible for us to know. You should check your IP address, prefix and gateway. One or more of them are most likely wrong.
