OK, back to being on-topic for FreeBSD: how would I assign v6 addresses to those interfaces? I'm running rtadvd on that machine and it's my understanding that sending and accepting advertisements on the same host is a no-no. Should I just give them all static assignments in /etc/rc.conf? And is there any suggested way for "inventing" the addresses for those interfaces? >> "link-local"?

IPv6 and multiple interfaces
I'm using an IPv6 tunnel to Hurricane Electric on my FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE firewall. That firewall has multiple Ethernet interfaces. Should each of those interfaces be assigned a routable IPv6 address? And what *is* "link-local"?
