Second, you lack 'auto eth0' stanza, so your network interface won't be configured until you invoke 'ifup eht0' explicitly. Third, your default IPv6 route is wrong. Default gateway must be from the same network as your IP, i.e. 2620:7:a000::/64 in this case.

Try 'ping6 ip6-localhost'. > root@server1:/home/server1# host -t AAAA www.cyberciti.biz > www.cyberciti.biz has no AAAA record Same result here, and I have working IPv6 connectivity to the outside world. Besides, you can query DNS AAAA records even if you disable IPv6 completely. So this one does not mean anything. Reco
