Bonjour.

I have been trying to get kernel mode pppoe to talk to my ISP.
I have successfully been using pppoe(4) for a while now in IPv4 only.
My ISP has gone dual stack to broadband customers and I would like to
get on the wagon.
We get a 64 which is presumably dynamically assigned (we have not been
informed of addresses).

I found this thread:
http://marc.info/?t=118003839500010&r=1&w=4
Particularly:
http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-tech&m=118012030815958&w=4

Having a dynamic address I cannot use the layout that spacehopper did.
It looks like he picked one of his 64 and assigned it to the pppoe interface.
My option is to use the other configuration (example):
!/sbin/route add -inet6 default fe80::20a:e4ff:fe03:87b4%pppoe0

This gels with what Stuart suggested:
"If you only get a /64 you probably need to look up the link-
local address on pppoe0 and use that as the default route ..."
However this doesn't mean much to me:
"... then put an address from within the /64 on another interface
to source packets from."
If I don't know my 64 how can I assign part of it to an interface and
to what interface?

Regardless, my ping6 attempts don't work.

Here is my hostname.pppoe0:
# cat hostname.pppoe0
pppoedev vr0
authproto chap
authname '[email protected]'
authkey 'password'
up
inet 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255
dest 0.0.0.1
#inet6 ::0 64
#dest ::1
!/sbin/route add -inet default -ifp pppoe0 0.0.0.1
!/sbin/route add -inet6 default fe80::20d:b9ff:fe17:c6f0%pppoe0

I have tried various combinations of uncommenting and changing stuff.
The IPv4 stuff works fine.
The best I can do as far as IPnG goes is to ping6 my loopback.
I have also tried changing my sysctl.conf although I get the idea that
I don't need to.

All help appreciated.

In case this is useful (probably not):

Best wishes.
