Title: Using the routed /48 on windows.
Post by: lynxus on January 20, 2009, 04:59:10 AM
Hi guys,

I have linux working fine behind a router and switch however in windows all i can do is have the tunnel

How do I use an ip in the routed /48.
I set an IP on my lan interface however i cant seem to ping it from any other working IPv6 network.

The IPs on the tunnel interfaces cant be used by apache or any other server software so i need to figure out how to get windows software to see an IPv6 IP and useit.

I hope this made sense?

Thanks again

just as a good starting point: disable any sw firewall you might have on youre machine, in my experience vary few ar ipv6 compatible so ipv6 realted traffic gets dropped.

All software firewalls are disabled so this isnt the problem.

Thnaks anyway :)

You can use the router advertising protocol and have your windows obtain the ip from linux.
Also if you wan't to mannualy add the ip like you did - check the route - what gateway is sat on the windows maching (probably should be linux) and if it's reachable.

Your 2001:470:9235:1::1 (windows box) needs to forward packets somewhere (to the gateway)
so you need to set an ip on the linux box like 2001:470:9235:1::2. Also the gateway needs to have packed forwarding turn on.
