I need to support IPv6, and am playing with Unbuntu as a VE. I've used it as itself naturally, and IPv6 wasn't a problem to configure. My other VEs (not debian based: centos, fedora, trixbox) configure and use IPv6 happily (yay!).
I'm able to configure the IP with vzctl, and once the VE is up and entered, /etc/network/interfaces has an IPv6 config (IP changed for posterity):
iface venet0 inet6 static
address ::1
netmask 128
up ifconfig venet0 add a:b:c::d
However ifconfig output shows nothing configured:
venet0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00
inet addr:127.0.0.1 P-t-P:127.0.0.1 Bcast:0.0.0.0 Mask:255.255.255.255
UP BROADCAST POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
I'm looking for this to come up correctly when the VE is started (like the other VEs), and am wondering if the syntax isn't generated correctly or if I'm overlooking something. I don't have access to a non-virutalized ubuntu box to muck with, or spare equipment to blast it onto (zomg, a reason for virtualization!!1!1).
And searching for IPv6 + (any distro) results in "omg what the hell is ipv6, and how do I get rid of it because it takes me an extra 30 seconds for dns lookups to time out because it found a AAAA record and my computer/ISP isn't cool enough to have tunneled/native IPv6 connectivity" posts.
