How to set up a public NAT64 server?

[wtongze]

Hi guys,
I currently have a VPS on Vultr and I want to run a public NAT64 server just like these guys did:

Jool NAT64 with BIND9 DNS64: set your DNS to 2001:67c:27e4:15::64
Jool NAT64 implementation is running in a virtual container on proxmox server.
NAT64 routed prefix: 2001:67c:27e4:1064::/64
Quick ping6 test if up&running: ping6 2001:67c:27e4:1064::5bef:6015

>NAT64/DNS64 public test<

My server info:
Ubuntu 16.04.3
Kernel 4.4.0-87-generic x86_64
IPv4: 45.77.184.213
IPv6: 2001:19f0:ac01:413::1/64

I have successfully installed jool and allowed IPv4 & IPv6 forwarding in sysctl.conf.

However, when I run these commands, I got an error on the ping6 command:
root@vultr:~# /sbin/modprobe jool_siit pool6=2001:19f0:ac01:413::/96

root@vultr:~# ping6 2001:19f0:ac01:413::8.8.8.8

Can anybody help me out? Do I need to setup something like DHCPv6 server?

Thanks

No, you don't need a DHCP server.

Jool can currently only translate traffic being forwarded. A ping that's sourced from the NAT64 is completely unaware of Jool.

This will be fixed when Jool 4 is released (the issue is #140). In the meantime, if you want Jool to translate its own machine's traffic, you can always enclose the NAT64 instance behind a virtual interface and translate through there: formal documentation, example. But most likely you don't need this, as a public NAT64 probably only really needs to translate forwarding traffic.

I'm assuming that's all there is to this issue. Feel free to reopen if you still have a problem.
