We've come across a problem with LXC test jobs on a network which only supports IPv6 but it's hard to replicate (this network is at a conference, just for a few days).

Has anyone already looked at IPv6 and LXC? Are there other IPv6 issues with LAVA?

We’ve been playing with LXC and IPv6 connection with the DUT. It is only link-local connection though. In order to do that I had to change the LAVA code to set-up a network bridge and add the interface I wanted to expose to the container.

Apart of the change we made to lava, I did test the LXC+bridge+IPv6 outside LAVA and it was working. I could ping/ssh IPv6 link-local addresses outside the container.

I've found this guide but to be able to document this, the content needs to come from someone who can replicate and test the actual problems.

As I imagined, you have another class of issues related to routing, public IPs, etc… which the link-local address doesn;t have.

I’m sorry I cannot help you further.
