For IPv6 configured tunneling, this approach is clear.
But for Automatic Tunneling, I have a point here:
How does IPv6 differantiate between Automatic and configured tunnlling?
For Automatic Tunnelling the Destination v4 Address is fetched from the
IPv4-compatibl-ipv6
address and in this case, there is no meaning of configuring the tunnel end points.
The point boils down to - how to identify rcving/xmitting interface index for
Automatic Tunneling.

Yes, that was one of the intents of RFC 2667.

Hi folks,
cant we treat the IPv4 layer incase of IPv6/IPv4 nodes as a
tunnel interface, with the local, remote IPv4 addresses as the
tunnel configurations i.e. can we apply the new tunnel mib 2667
to this concept of tunneling.
here a tunnel interface will be created, and the IPv6 routing table will
have
the IPv4 encap also as a interface.
does that sound ok ?
