Yet another non VPN expert here :)
It doesn't help that oVPN isn't particularly user friendly!
You would have IPv4 for your VPNclient to connect to (that would have to be an Internet routable IP) and if you configure IPv6 inside your network client should be re-routed to the resource.
Sounds right to me
My guess would be that the client will get local IPv6 "nat-ed" from the OpenVPN.
This is where I stray into my lack of IPv6 knowledge (I understand NAT on IPv4 but I'm starting as a complete IPv6 novice - that is of-course the point of this exercise!)
Working IPv6 DNS will probably be a good thing to start with.
True: I hadn't thought about how to map devices to IPv6 addresses. But assuming I had a DNS server within the VPN, I wouldn't want all my (non-VPN) DNS queries being sent there. Is there a good solution to this?
