Disabling IPv6 on Linux

Disabling IPv6 temporarily can resolve certain network issues. Follow the instructions for your Linux distribution.

For Red Hat-Based Systems:

1. Open the terminal.
2. Switch to the root user.

Disable IPv6 with these commands:

sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.tun0.disable_ipv6=1

To re-enable IPv6:

sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=0
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=0
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.tun0.disable_ipv6=0
sysctl -p

For Debian-Based Systems:

1. Open the terminal.

Edit the configuration file:

sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf

Add the following lines to the file:

net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.tun0.disable_ipv6 = 1

1. Save and close the file.
2. Reboot your device.

To re-enable IPv6:

• Remove the above lines from /etc/sysctl.conf and reboot.

By following these instructions, you can efficiently configure and manage your ApexGuard VPN connection on Linux.

Connecting to Your Dedicated IP on Linux

To connect to your dedicated IP using ApexGuard on Linux, ensure you have completed the following prerequisites:

1. Purchased a dedicated IP: If not, visit your account and make the purchase.
2. Set up the dedicated IP in your account: Log in and configure your dedicated IP as instructed.

Once confirmed, use the following command to connect to your dedicated IP:
