在Centos5.5默认的状态下，ipv6是被启用的。因为我们不使用ipv6，所以，可以停止ipv6，以最大限度地保证安全和快速。首先确认一下ipv6是不是处于被启动的状态。［root@sample ～］#ifconfig -a ← 列出全部网络接口信息

然后修改相应配置文件，停止ipv6，如下所示：
［root@sample ～］#vi /etc/modprobe.conf ← 修改相应配置文件，添加如下内容
alias net-pf-10 off
alias ipv6 off
echo "IPV6INIT=no" >> /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
［root@sample ～］#shutdown -r now ← 重新启动系统，使设置生效
最后确认ipv6的功能已经被关闭，如下所示：
［root@sample ～］#ifconfig -a ← 列出全部网络接口信息

确认ipv6的相关信息没有被列出，说明ipv6功能已经关闭。
