It depends on how your server is configured.
By default, no IPv6 address is setup to your OVH server, just the main IPv4 address. So you would need to add this manually (and this may require a different OVH kernel - see the OVH Manager's Netboot kernels for those with IPv6 support).
If you did manually setup an IPv6 address on your server, then double check by issuing "ip6tables -L" from the shell. If you see the following output:
Code:
Chain INPUT (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT all anywhere anywhere
Chain FORWARD (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT all anywhere anywhere
then your IPv6 side is NOT protected by a firewall.
