exports configuration is "*"
Then the IPv6 address you want to use is 2600:1702:4860:9dd0:21d:60ff:fe35:b813
Oh, I forgot to mention that your IPv6 addresses appear to be Dynamically assigned IP
addresses. Meaning they are not "fixed" and may change. Not the best for uses in a
client/server environment.
Assignment is done by the ISP router. While not fixed they don't change much. Stable through power failure and reboot for the most part.
There are basically 2 types of IPv6 IP Dynamic assignment techniques. State-full, and Stateless.
Briefly, State-full is DHCPv6.
While Stateless is a bit more involved. In Stateless the device needing an IP address
receives a Router Announcement which tells it the IP address of the router and subnet information. From there
a unique IPv6 address is determined.
Given the *huge* IPv6 address space they can both can stay the same for quite some time but that is not guaranteed.
Not an ideal situation for client/server.
