• ipv6 only hosting

    Hello All!

    how to disable ipv4 in linux kernel, is it possible ?

    well i know then ipv4 clients needs a ipv6 proxy from ipv4, but just like to know if one have done single stacking with ipv6, i like to keep my mem footprint low is the reason for me to think so, its not impossible, but using dual stack needs more memory, and dual firewalls btw


    Regards Benny

    Even if not, `ip -4 address flush ...` will do the right thing for you.

    Do you have to count every kilobyte?

    No, not yet. You'll always have a lo Interface with IPv4.

    just that ipv4 is still supported in kernel, only way to make ipv6 only currently is to not setup ipv4, but that only possible if the ipv6 is not tunneled over ipv4

    do i need more ram ?, i just monitor swap to be low, thats means its optimal, remember one fidonet node hands out pkt files at 550M, it was a great swap tester, hpt use tmp files in ram as it sees, i still have the big size pkt file for testers :=)
