Avvertimento

Disabling IPv6 on a server is not without dangers! See reference 2. Remember to disable IPv6 from server configurations such as OpenSSH and Unbound, for example.

/etc/ssh/sshd_config
1# [ ... ]
2AddressFamily inet
3ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
4# [ ... ]

You may want to disable IPv6 on OpenWrt because of DNS issues with recent Android OSes. Android uses the IPv6 DNSes advertised by an OpenWRT router even if you set a static IPv4 DNS.

  1. login the LuCI web UI

  2. append this content to System -> Startup -> Local Startup before the exit 0 command

    sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1

    Nota

    The net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6=1 option does not seem to have any effect on the loopback interface.

  3. reboot
