trying to talk between two ipv6 networks with no firewalls

One is a comcast 6to4. it looks configured correctly. multiple hosts can browse sites like ipv6.google.com and http://ipv6.whatismyipv6.net/?s=browser_environment

The other is a hurricane electric tunnel. it too lets multiple hosts browse the same sites.

But when a host from one tries to ping or traceroute or nmap or connect to port 80, it times out.

e.g.

In the process of writing this post i realized that on the 2002:47ee:e061:1::/64 router I was missing a default route. it just turns out that most of the ipv6 hosts that i know of did have routes.

Now I think something must be configured wrong with my he tunnel.

its route table looks like this:

2001:470:1f10:3bb::/64 via :: dev he-ipv6  proto kernel  metric 256  mtu 1480 advmss 1420 hoplimit 4294967295

unreachable default dev lo  proto kernel  metric -1  error -128 hoplimit 255

its addresses look like this:

The HE side seems to be working

If I had to wager a guess, I'd say it's the 6to4 stuff that isn't working as I can't ping any of the addresses you listed, but I can ping every HE address you listed.

jrwren

thanks for that.

i saw on twitter that comcast was having network issues last night, maybe that includes their 6to4

The strange part is that i from those comcast 6to4 addresses i could browse ipv6 websites, but i couldn't browse a website on that he tunnel.

cholzhauer

Is there a default route on the HE side?

Or is this it?

default dev he-ipv6  metric 1024  mtu 1480 advmss 1420 hoplimit 4294967295
