I have an issue this moment that I am writing with a Mac on the network. This may be desirable to avoid certain networking conflicts, or to increase security for users in higher threat environments, since IPv6 has been found by researchers to be potentially vulnerable to man-in-the-middle and other network attacks. Networksetup Setv6Off Wi-Fi Mac OS X System ServicesSome of the core Mac OS X system services, like the discovery service Bonjour, use IPv6. Accordingly, disabling IPv6 may render AirDrop sharing unusable, certain print services will become unavailable, and some other convenient Mac features may turn inoperable as well. Users can also check to see if IPv6 is actively used through System Preferences, which Mac OS X defaults to putting into an automatic state. Note that many modern Macs only have wi-fi cards, rendering the ethernet option unnecessary. If the Mac has both wi-fi and ethernet networking, youll probably want to disable IPv6 for both interfaces. Re-enabling IPv6 should return all Bonjour services to their regularly functioning state, including the ever-useful AirDrop file transfer feature. If you have an extra NIC that you are bridging to a VM, be certain to disable IPV4 and IPV6 so that macOS cant receive any packets by accident. It can still receive non-IP traffic though, but hopefully all of the other computers on your physical network segment are trusted and fully secure from being used as an IP attack proxy.). Couldnt find out why till disabling IPv6 in MacOs. Great job. After using the terminal command to disable ipv6 for my Wifi connection, I noticed that it will stay disabled for a week or so, however it is not permanent, at least in my scenario. Is this normal behavior, or possible due to an intrusion Ill add that the reason that Im disabling it in the first place is due to legitimate security concerns- my computer has been hacked numerous times over the last few years, identity stolen, etc. Im grateful for any information that anyone can provide. Thanks. I think OSx uses its own name resolution, which explains why hitting an address with Chrome or Firefox works, but with Safari hangs and times out. It is inherently vulnerable and should never have been released to the public or imposed on home users with easy to use, graphical tools to secure it. Its bad enough that we distribute vulnerable routers to everyones home network that allows them to be man-in-the-middled but now were providing them with vulnerable routing as well. Give us your reasons for this statement It is inherently vulnerable and should never have been released to the public or imposed on home users with easy to use, graphical tools to secure it, and some references to substantiate what you are saying. In every case that turning off IPv6 is applicable, either supporting it on the network or using security protocols (TLS, VPN) are preferable. All these clever little hacks are basically equally applicable to IPv4so turning IPv6 off in anything but a fixed networking environment where RAGuard or whatever is not available just means hobbling your system. And, when IPv6 is finally supported in your environment, youll have to turn this back on again. It is simply not an option to just turn off IPv6 and ignore it. ![]() Facebook and Google products stalled or stopped functioning altogether. Maybe my home network is broken but for now I am much happier.
