3. Create file/etc/modprobe.d/ipv6off.conf (name casually)

Note: There is no/etc/modprobe.conf this file after RHEL6.0.

The code is as follows

4. Reboot the system and confirm:

The code is as follows
[Root@test ~]# Lsmod | Grep-i IPv6 [Root@test ~]# Ifconfig | Grep-i Inet6

If the results of these 2 commands are not displayed, then the IPv6 has been completely banned.

In a method that does not load the IPv6 module, someone will have a setup method like this:

The code is as follows
Alias net-pf-10 off Alias IPv6 off Options IPv6 disable=1

Although the IPv6 did not load after the system was restarted, the second sentence, in some versions of the system, when we restart the network, there will be errors: Fatal:module off is not found.
