IPV6 Swift Reachability

ipv6

I am new to swift and xcode & have had my app rejected due to IPV6:

Performance - 2.1

Your app crashes on an iPad and an iPhone running iOS 9.3.5 connected >to an IPv6 network when we:

Specifically, when we touch the More button in the bottom right hand corner of the app it crashed.

I have spent a lot of the day doing reading around ipv6 and have concluded that it may be the reachability class I am using.

I have a couple of questions, how would I modify the code to include ipv6:

public class Reachability {

    class func isConnectedToNetwork() -> Bool {

        var zeroAddress = sockaddr_in(sin_len: 0, sin_family: 0, sin_port: 0, sin_addr: in_addr(s_addr: 0), sin_zero: (0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0))
        zeroAddress.sin_len = UInt8(sizeofValue(zeroAddress))
        zeroAddress.sin_family = sa_family_t(AF_INET)

        let defaultRouteReachability = withUnsafePointer(&zeroAddress) {
            SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(kCFAllocatorDefault, UnsafePointer($0))

        }

        var flags: SCNetworkReachabilityFlags = SCNetworkReachabilityFlags(rawValue: 0)
        if SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(defaultRouteReachability!, &flags) == false {
            return false
        }

        let isReachable = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsReachable)) != 0
        let needsConnection = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsConnectionRequired)) != 0        
        return isReachable && !needsConnection

    }
}

and because I am using http requests does my server have to be configured for ipv6 as well?

any help would be much appreciated!

As seen in the rejection notice, your problems stem from assumptions that are no longer valid on IPv6-only and other modern network topologies. There's two steps to move forward here...

  1. Don't use reachability to "preflight" before making connections. From Apple's guide to supporting modern networks:

The Reachability APIs (see SCNetworkReachability Reference) are intended for diagnostic purposes after identifying a connectivity issue. Many apps incorrectly use these APIs to proactively check for an Internet connection by calling the SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress method and passing it an IPv4 address of 0.0.0.0, which indicates that there is a router on the network. However, the presence of a router doesn’t guarantee that an Internet connection exists. In general, avoid preflighting network reachability. Just try to make a connection and gracefully handle failures. If you must check for network availability, avoid calling the SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress method. Call the SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithName method and pass it a hostname instead.

Some apps also pass the SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress method an IPv4 address of 169.254.0.0, a self-assigned link-local address, to check for an active Wi-Fi connection. To check for Wi-Fi or cellular connectivity, look for the network reachability flag kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsIsWWAN instead.

  1. Test with IPv6-only networks before submitting to the App store. You can set up a NAT64 gateway on your development Mac to create an IPv6-only network for use by your test devices.

There's more good advice for supporting IPv6 and modern networks in the above links, and in WWDC16 session 714, "Networking for the Modern Internet".
