In fact, it will be very good if you can tell me (private email to avoid brands/models here) what router or NAT box are you using, so I can include it in my survey.
Same for other people that has used this ;-) Regards, Jordi PS: By the way, yes, you can use any of the computers after the NAT as the IPv6 router. I'm doing it right now, in my hotel room, and I see some other people using my IPv6 prefix, for free, being my laptop the router ! You can read the last draft (-02 waiting in the editors queue) and also this document http://www.euro6ix.org/documentation/euro6ix_co_upm-consulintel_wp4_ipv6_tunnels_nat_v1_6.pdf. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tim Chown" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, October 22, 2003 6:28 PM Subject: Re: A host who has private IPv4 address can communicate with IPv6 host globaly by 6to4 tunnel > Hi, > > Yes, this will work.
