How to test the web server is ipv6 compatiable

sub320 · 06-24-2018, 09:56 PM

I have a web server running on redhat 7 and apache , which works fine to run on ipv4 .

I have change apache and network interface for adding it to enable ipv6 , but fail to run the below third-party tools, I am not sure if it is our equipment not ipv6 compatiable .

http://ip6tools.com/#

Therefore , I would like to test it in localhost to confirm if the web system is ipv6 compatible .

One thing I want to do is enable the browser in localhost , it may directly access the web page without pass through any network equipment ( eg. firewall , switch ) ,
but my server do not install any GUI tools , would advise is there any easy method ( as this is production web server ) so that I can use the web browser in localhost for the test ?

or is there any way to confirm the web page is ipv6 compatible ?

thanks
