The procedure is, For the benefit of the lists, and confirming private mail I sent, ping6 works using the second of the patches sent (I didn't try the first). Ok. In addition to your instructions I also configured the box as an IPv6 router (using the rc.conf switches) and used a prefix of 2002:cc5f:bb02::0/64 on the interior ethernet interface de0 with 2002:cc5f:bb02::1/16 on stf0. I'm not sure if this is quite right. Anyway, I can ping6 to 2002:cbb2:8dd8::1 from my interior ipv6 box as well as from the router box. I also configured DNS for the two boxes, assigning ipv6 addresses to test.ipv6.tar.com and ns.ipv6.tar.com. One of my DNS secondaries does not update immediately on notification, so you might not get the ipv6 resolution until it updates on schedule if you happen to query that box. However, once all the secondaries are up, i hope you can ping6 to both ns.ipv6.tar.com (router) and test.ipv6.tar.com (interior). I also had to adjust my ipv4 firewall rules to allow protocol ipv6 through. Strange that I didn't have to do that when doing a gif tunnel to freenet6.net. Also, what do I have to do to enable ip6fw? -- Richard Seaman, Jr. email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5182 N.

Re: IPv6: can a link-site (or global) address be configured in rc.conf?
Very unfortunately, 6to4 is not yet supported in FreeBSD/KAME. So now available options will be, -Use freenet6 (for one hosts). -Get IPv6 address block and connect to 6bone using gif tunnel. We hope to add 6to4 support for KAME/FreeBSD very soon (next week is a good guess). We may need some more testing before real use, but it should work. it is in KAME/NetBSD already, I just don't have time to make it work on othre *BSDs yet... itojun To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
IPv6: can a link-site (or global) address be configured in rc.conf?
Hello, Now that I have several machines running FreeBSD 4.0, I started to play with IPv6. It's fun! I have plans to set up a v6-over-v4 tunnel and connect to the 6Bone. I read /usr/share/examples/IPv6/USAGE, /usr/share/doc/IPv6/IMPLEMENTATION and some documents at the KAME web site. However, I still have to figure out how to assign a not-link-local address (i.e., a site or global address) to the [unique] Ethernet interface of each host in an automatic manner (from /etc/rc.conf). After reading /etc/rc.network6 I concluded that no addresses apart from the link-local ones are assigned to the interfaces. I am using ifconfig manually to do this (BTW, I found that there is no need to specify "alias"). I am new to IPv6, so maybe I am asking for something with no sense... My congratulations to the IPv6 team. Great job!

IPv6 autoconfiguration is very roughly analogous to using DHCP in the IPv4 world. (It's not exactly the same though. In fact, there exists a DHCP for IPv6.) Hope this helps, Bruce. PGP signature
Re: IPv6: can a link-site (or global) address be configured in rc.conf?
Bruce is right that machines expect to learn their prefixes from their local router; however if you're just playing around you might want to set it yourself. The easiest way I've found to do this is to say that this machine is a router: # sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1 net.inet6.ip6.forwarding: 0 - 1 and then run "prefix" to set a site-local prefix: # prefix dc0 fec0:0:0:1:: # ifconfig dc0 dc0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::2a0:ccff:fe36:7410%dc0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet6 fec0::1:2a0:ccff:fe36:7410 prefixlen 64 Of course, if you have global address space too you can assign that prefix too.

Thanks Bruce and Bill!. I suspected something like this. I read about IPv6 autoconfiguration, but since I am playing with site-local addresses and I have no IPv6 router [yet], I wondered about how to configure the IPv6 site-local address.

My apologies if I sound like I need "IPv6 for Dummies". Just to clarify. You mean that 6to4 is currently supported in FreeBSD/KAME? Of course, I'm not quite sure what I mean by this. I guess, if I configure a FreeBSD/KAME host as an IPv6 router, will the router automatically do the IPv6-IPv4 encapsulation when it encounters a destination prefix of 2002::/16 and vice versa for incoming packets? Or, do I need to configure a pseudo interface somehow (gif doesn't look quite like the right thing?). Also, will FreeBSD/KAME hosts (both router and non-router hosts) somehow automatically do the proper address selection algorithm when they encounter multiple IPv6 addresses, or is that an application level requirement? Also, if I have (for example) IPv4 addresses of 204.95.187/24, I assume I can use any of the 2002:[V4ADDR]:/48 prefixes within my allocation, but for external 6to4 connectivity I should probably choose the V4ADDR of the external interface of the 6to4 router? And, finally, do some of the 6to4 relay routers that are "up and running" serve small isolated sites? I assume the best case is that one's ISP provides IPv6 connectivity in some shape or form. But, if thats not the case, I assume the main options are IPv6-IPv4 tunnel to a co-operative IPv6 site, or 6to4 with a default route to a relay router (who I assume must configure a static route back?). Or, run a more sophisticated routing protocol (BGP), but thats a little much for me, I think. Of course, if everyone configures 6to4 (or at least everyone you want to reach) then am I correct that you don't really need 6to4 "relay" routers? This is only for reaching native IPv6 sites without 6to4 addresses? Thanks. -- Richard Seaman, Jr. email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5182 N.
