I just would like to confirm all thing that I need to do is just add/update the below to network config file ? no need to install any module for it ?

"
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6ADDR=XXXX:C810:300100::3/56
IPV6_DEFAULTGW=XXXX:C810:300100::1
DNS3=2620:0:ccc::2
DNS4=2620:0:ccD::2

Furthermore , I use apache , PHP , mysql , nginx etc , is there anything that I need to do ?

Answer 1

(i) To enable ipv6 in nginx, need to add only one line.

listen [::]:80;

80 is the port on which nginx is running.

(ii) For apache add listen directive as following in httpd.conf

Listen [ipv6 value]:80
