Hi, i have a normal DSL-connection. My provider only supplies a IPv4 address - and so my ppp0 does not have a IPv6 address. The IPv4 of ppp0 address changes every 24 hours.
So i'd like to be abled to use IPv6 from my LAN which sits behind my Gentoo-based DSL router. I think, that 6to4 would be right for me. If i do a traceroute to the 192.88.99.1 (the host, that all the 6to4 packets goto), i get contact after really few hops. Great! I'm facing many many questions. My friend is telling me, that in theory, i would be abled to use IPv6 addresses based on the 6to4-address of the IPv4 address of my ppp0 - but that changes every 24 hours. A MASQ-target seems not to be available for IPv6 - so if my router disconnects/reconnets, all the computers in my LAN will have to change their IPv6 address. Has anyone ever tried to supply his homenetwork with IPv6 through a normal IPv6 connection? If so, did it work? And what did you do? Thanks. Sven -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
