Bacula Networking
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BAC Address
Firstly, check the client server has a bacula IPv6 address.
ip a
Will look something like the following (note the 'BAC' present around the middle of this address)
2a02:22d0:bac:0:3617:ebff:fef1:1f8
If the server does not have a v6 address, we need to check the backup NIC config and then try to restart the backup NIC.
IPv6 Network Restrictions
Ensure that the ip6tables service isn't running:
Systemctl status ip6tables
Check the ruleset:
ip6tables –S
Add required rules for Bacula IPv6 networking over ports 9102 and 9103:
ip6tables -I INPUT -i eth1/em2 -j ACCEPT
ip6tables -I OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 9102 -j ACCEPT
ip6tables -I OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 9103 -j ACCEPT
service ip6tables save && service ip6tables restart
