Hello
How do I change the IP address?
This IP is IPV4 CGNAT, impossible to open doors.
But in IPV6 port 32400 is open.
Where I must change it? some part of the code, somewhere in the files?
Thank you
Nobody uses IPV6? without IPV6 support the plexserver no users in a few months.
Plex server don’t work fine in IPV6 conections?
I have no experience with IPv6, so I won’t be much help beyond pointing out the following:
The only mention of IPv6 that I can find in Plex is the setting on the Server/Network page. You’ve probably already found this, but just in case:
You may want to search the forums to see if anyone has had any experience getting it to work.
Can anyone help me?
Anyone have this problem?
Currently there is no easy way to achieve ‘remote access’ per IPv6 only.
The only workaround I know of is to have a router which is able to request a IPv4 to IPv6 tunnel from a tunnel broker.
This tunnel broker provides you with a domain name and a port number which you in turn enter into the ‘Custom server access URLs’ in Plex.
(Settings - Server - Network - ‘Show Advanced’ - “Custom server access URLs”)
You’ll need a custom, trusted cryptographic certificate if you want to use ‘Secure Connections’ under these circumstances.
Unfortunately I cannot provide you with detail information, since I never used this myself.
There are some reports from users who managed to get it working in these forums.
Keep in mind that all the media traffic then goes through the tunnel broker. Some of them enforce bandwidth limits which reduce the usefulness of this workaround for video streaming.
What are you trying to do? Although the status page only shows IPv4 if you have the “enable IPv6” enabled you can access the server using its IPv6 address.
I run dual stack at home using IPv6 native with DNS and by default my clients typically prefer IPv6 over IPv4
Running Windows PMS with various clients. Note Roku does not support any IPv6 today

Thank you, your answer helps to clarify and understand better. Thank you again

Hello,
The problem is that the connection here in Brazil / South America is still difficult IPV6 totally “clean”.
The IPV6 is generated through a set IPV4, several people use the same IPV4, and then a particular IPV6 is generated for each person through that, ie, first IPV4 generating a false IPV6 liar. This is the name of CGNAT, it is impossible to open the door, all the firewalls released, but the doors do not give access. The Internet provider does not release the ports because the same IPv4 is shared with many people, so they say it is for security not to open doors.
Some friends can access my plexserver, but there are very few, only a few, My settings look like this:
Thank you
Hmm, this is going to get complicated really quickly from a networking perspective and not sure what your knowledge is. My big problem is CGN varies greatly between ISP’s with how they deploy it. If you can help me understand how the network is setup, maybe we can figure out a way round it.
The IPv4 address you are assigned by the ISP i expect is a private address (10.x.x.x, 172.16.x.x or 192.168.x.x) and when accessing the Internet outside the ISP network it is NAT’d by them and not your local router.
What router are you using at home and does that also NAT IPv4 addresses and support IPv6?
How is the IPv6 address assigned, is it a IPv6 tunnel over IPv4 or more native, i.e. provided by DHCP-PD
At home can you access the PMS using a Web browser and the IPv6 address off the server?
Is the PMS using a static IPv6 address or assigned dynamically and what OS is the PMS running on.
Sorry for all the questions, but CGN means so many different things around the world. T-Mobile in the US on some devices uses NAT64 and only assigns an IPv6 address for example
As a followup, can you access your server via Plex.tv web app? https://app.plex.tv/web/app
In addition, what clients are your family members trying to access your PMS?
I have been doing some testing and something I had not noticed before is using the Plex TV web app, it is using IPv6, however it needs IPv4 to get access to the website. Hence why I run IPv6 ONLY i cannot connect to plex.tv as there is no DNS AAAA records. Some parts of the Plex cloud are using IPv6 and others are not.
