  • Ok, so it’s probably using NetworkManager. I would try disabling it in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf by adding a block like:

    [ipv6]
    addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy
    method=disabled
    

    Then sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager. Can’t say for sure if this will work. I dislike using NetworkManager on my servers so I can’t test if this works. But hopefully the before/after of ip addr is different.

    Although it looks like your ip addr output posted an hour or so ago doesn’t show any ipv6 addressing. Maybe the problem is solved now.


  • Different programs have different defaults.

    But in your situation which would be more helpful - prevent this one docker command from using ipv6 (likely more difficult), or preventing all commands from using your broken ipv6 config (likely easier)?

    I have no idea about the first. Maybe some people know this detail. But I’m sure that with a distro and version that you’re running, there are lots of people who could help with the second. Raspberry Pi 3B+ is the hardware. What software are you using?


  • Docker is a distraction in your problem description.

    It’s like if you asked why the top gear in your car isn’t working and gave the model of car and engine type and gearbox. But it’s really that you’re stuck in slow traffic. Focus on the road name and destination to find a faster route.

    For your problem, search for how to disable ipv6 for the Linux distribution and version that you have installed. You will find lots of guidance. Or share those details here for someone to help.

    Or, better might be to see if there is a way to get ipv6 tunneling working on your connection. It may be possible even if the ISP is unhelpful.






  • After you know the wattage of your load, use the Runtime tab on the product page to see how much runtime you get at a given wattage. https://www.cyberpowersystems.com/product/ups/smart-app-lcd/or1500lcdrm1u/
    The one you have selected will have 2 minutes of runtime ~900w on a fresh battery. If all you want to do is clean shutdown, that’s probably fine (as long as you don’t have brief power drops that you want your shutdown procedure to ignore). If you need more time then you’ll need a different UPS.

    Note that some UPS models will do better for a given task than others with similar specs. For example I have a ~100w homelab, and wanted maximum runtime for 50w during a power outage (servers off, router+switch+aps active). Some similar spec Cyberpower models were ~120 minute runtime at 50w while others were 200+ for the same load.
