Does iptables/firewall work with IPv6?

[Wonder]

@sahsanu

Hestia doesn’t support IPv6 yet. Work is being done, but it isn’t available yet.

Excuse me, this might be a bit off-topic in this thread. I came to ask about the possibility of iptables/firewall working with IPv6. You informed me that Hestia doesn’t support IPv6, okay.

I came here because of this thread:

Adding IPV6 support to nginx

Question. Hope someone can help me out while we wait for IPV6 to be available by default in hestia. I am trying to add a template which enables ipv6, but for the life of me can´t get it to work. Can someone spot my mistake? This is what I did. In /usr/local/hestia/data/templates/web/nginx: cp default.tpl ipv6.tpl cp default.stpl ipv6.stpl Add ipv6 listen directive: # ipv6.tpl server { listen [::]:%proxy_port%; listen %ip%:%proxy_port%; ... # ipv6.stpl server { …

I understand that with this system, users would access the site via IPv6 through Nginx (it’s the same system I use in another panel I’m currently using and plan to abandon). Am I mistaken, or is this correct?

What I don’t see here is how to select one template or the other (default.tpl or ipv6.tpl once it’s copied and edited, of course). It would be a way to test this without affecting the site in any way.

Thanks in advance.
