A dual-stack device is a device with network interfaces that can originate and understand both IPv4 and IPv6 packets. Other strategies, such as manually or dynamically configured tunnels and translation devices exist, but dual stacking is often the preferable solution in many scenarios.

What is dual stack TCP IP?

The term dual-stack normally refers to a complete duplication of all levels in the protocol stack from applications to the network layer. One example of complete duplication is a system that runs both the OSI and TCP/IP protocols.

What is PPPoE IPv6?

Point-to-Point Protocol Over Ethernet (PPPoE) for IPv6 provides the ability to connect a network of hosts over a simple bridging access device to a remote Access Concentrator in the IPv6 network. Each host utilizes its own Point-to-Point Protocol stack and the user is presented with a familiar user interface.

Does PPPoE use IPv6?

PPPoE for IPv6 is based on the same PPP model as for PPPoE over IPv4. The main difference in deployment is related to the nature of the routed protocol assignment to CPEs (PPPoE clients). PPPoE client gets its WAN interface IPv6 address through SLAAC and a delegated prefix to be used for the LAN segment though DHCPv6.

Should I use IPv4 or IPv6 or both?

You should use both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Nearly everyone on the Internet currently has an IPv4 address, or is behind a NAT of some kind, and can access IPv4 resources.

Can I have both IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time?

Actually, IPv4 and IPv6 aren’t compatible with each other, which means devices cannot communicate directly. Today, IPv4 is still dominant in IP network, while IPv6 network has only a small range of deployment and commercial use.

Can I use both IPv4 and IPv6?

What is PPPoE dual stack?

In the dual stack PPPoE host service, the PPPoE session is initiated directly from a dual stack host device or PC within the home network. PPPoE is used to carry IPv6 and (optionally) IPv4 traffic from the device to the Broadband Remote Access Server (BRAS), also called Broadband Network Gateway (BNG).

What are PPPoE settings?

Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a type of broadband connection that provides authentication (username and password) in addition to data transport. Most DSL providers use PPPoE to establish Internet connections for customers.

Does the USG unifi controller support PPPoE and dual-stack IPv4/IPv6?

This post is somewhat outdated; more recent versions of the USG firmware and UniFi Controller software configure PPPoE and dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 correctly. Setting up the current UniFi Controller is super easy – check out my new guide to configure the UniFi Controller inside a Docker container with a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate!

What is dual stack IPv6?

Dual stack refers to the concept of running a subsciber session with an IPv4 address as well as an IPv6 address. To unravle the complex terminology associated with address assignment in particular to IPv6 this picture below shows the various address assignment options available.

What is the Dot1q tag in a dual stack IPoE configuration?

CPE should come with single dot1q tag and this vlan tag should match with vlan id 10 configured under bundle sub-interface. In dual-stack IPoE configuration, “initiator dhcp” is configured ipv4/ipv6 l2 connect mode.

Why is my PPPoE not connecting to my IP address?

This bug manifests itself with any ISP who authenticates customers via PPPoE and provides dual stack connectivity on the PPPoE interface (and assigns a customer-end IPv6 address range via Prefix Delegation) – not just Internode. In case you haven’t already done so, configure IPv6 in the Controller.
