Are 2degress able to do static IPv6 allocations yet (via DHCPv6 PD) for connections via their Vocus network on UFB?

 

When ours was set up in November last year, a static IPv6 allocation was not possible (I pushed quite hard to get an answer about this and did get one in writing eventually), although a static IPv4 address which we are paying for, was no problem.  It was possible with other variants of their network but not when brought in via the Vocus infrastructure.

 

I hope that 12 months on this might now be an option.  Dynamic IPv6 PDs internally is fine for phones/laptops, but makes managing infrastructure quite difficult when the /56 prefix keeps changing.

 

Interested to hear if anyone else has been able to get this to happen recently.

Hi, purchased Static IPs now come with an IPV6 address as well.  This wasn't done for historic IPV4 so I'll reach out to @reubenfarrelly so we can add it.  I'm not sure why they weren't applied to existing static IPs when launched.

 

Regards,
Chris
