GW stuff:
(eth1 is the interface connecting to the AP)
result of ifconfig eth1
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:40:F4:84:2B:7F
inet addr:172.20.72.2 Bcast:172.20.255.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: 2000::240:f4ff:fe84:2b7f/128 Scope:Global
inet6 addr: fe80::240:f4ff:fe84:2b7f/64 Scope:Link
result of ip -6 route show
2000::201:29ff:fed0:7c84 dev eth2 metric 1 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 metric10 64

fe80::/64 dev eth0 metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 metric10 64

ff00::/8 dev eth2 metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 metric10 1

so, packets to the AP will go through eth1
AP stuff:
result of ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:01:29:D0:8B:59

inet6 addr: fe80::201:29ff:fed0:8b59/64 Scope:Link
result of ip -6 route show
2000::201:29ff:fed0:7ba3 dev eth0 metric 1 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 metric10 64

unreachable default dev lo proto none metric -1 error -101 metric10 255
the 2000::201:29:ff:fed0:7ba3 is the GW eth0 interface IP, not the GW
eth1 IP (this is because of the protocol structure itself)
so, pings to the GW eth1 IP will go through eth0 (default)
with these routing tables and IP I can ping 2000::240:f4ff:fe84:2b7f
(GW eth1) from the AP and ping 2000::201:29ff:fed0:8b59 (AP eth0)
from the GW... when I turn on ipv6forwarding on the AP these pings
stop working.

yes, I know. But it was suggested to me to use that, to be like the
protocolv4 that uses global ip's too. I remind that the network is
isolated so there isn't conflict problems with assigned worldwide
global ip's.

yes, I am :D #ipv6 in what network?
