Hi all,

 I am a new user to NetBSD although I am well conversant with Linux and
FreeBSD.

I have configured my server with IPV4 address and it runs well - See
technichristian.net

I am having a lot of problem configuring IPV6.

I want to configure the server with a Native static IPV6 address.

Here is what I have done so far:

In /etc/rc.conf: I have: *ip6mode=host*

In /etc/ifconfig.re0: I have:*inet6 2a02:e00:ffff:23:a00b:9aff:feed:88ea
prefixlen 64 alias*

where *2a02:e00:ffff:23:a00b:9aff:feed:88ea* is the static IP I want to
assign to my server.

I do not know how to set the IPV6 gateway.

So, in /etc/rc.local I added: *route -n add -inet6 default
2a02:e00:ffff:23::1*

where *2a02:e00:ffff:23::1 *is my IPv6 gateway.

When I ping ipv6.google.com, I get:

localhost# ping6 ipv6.google.com
PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) 2a02:e00:ffff:23:a00b:9aff:feed:88ea -->
2a00:1450:400c:c00::63
ping6: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping6: wrote ipv6.l.google.com 16 chars, ret=-1
ping6: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping6: wrote ipv6.l.google.com 16 chars, ret=-1
ping6: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping6: wrote ipv6.l.google.com 16 chars, ret=-1
ping6: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping6: wrote ipv6.l.google.com 16 chars, ret=-1
ping6: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping6: wrote ipv6.l.google.com 16 chars, ret=-1

The system does not take my gateway and instead has some other IPv6 value
called 2a00:1450:400c:c00::63 that I never assigned.

Please let me know how to get this working. This is NATIVE IPv6 assigned
manually that I want to get working. Someone, please guide.

Everything else works beautifully and I am loving NetBSD so far. Only this
remains.

Thanks
Michael
