I have a Internet connection of 8mbit/s adsl (half mbit/s up) -> connected to a Linux pc (kernel 2.4.21)
*on this pc I run firewall, squid, pop3, sendmail, dhcpd, named, sshd, apache, ntpd, jabberd, routed, etc.

Thus, it acts like a isp (for users of my lan)

there are several other pcs on lan, running different OS(s) win98, linux, win2k, winxp,frebsd, amiga,qnx,etc.
*user pcs are spread over two subnets, hard wired, for each pc @ 10,mbit/s up/down.

This setup has been working stable for a long time (over 10 years )

Thinking on providing ipv6 connectivity to my users,  I registered a ipv6 tunnel on Hurricane Electric's.

Well , the tunnel is working, and several services are now available via ipv6 too.
httpd , named, sshd, yacy server ..., (I hope squid ipv6 works next week)

however I am failing to provide ipv6 connectity to other pcs of my lan.

I have already installed radvd

*radvd.conf

Code: [Select]

interface eth2             
{                               
    AdvSendAdvert on;   
    MinRtrAdvInterval 5; 
    MaxRtrAdvInterval 15;
     prefix 2001:470:5:27::/64
    {
        AdvOnLink on;       
        AdvAutonomous on;   
    };
};
                   
         RDNSS 2001:470:4:27::2 2001:470:5:27::
        {
                AdvRDNSSPreference 8;
                AdvRDNSSOpen off;
                AdvRDNSSLifetime 30;
        };


};

then I go to my son pc, (winxp sp3) and typed on a dos prompt
netsh interface ipv6 add v6v4tunnel IP6Tunnel 192.168.22.50 192.168.22.14
netsh interface ipv6 add address IP6Tunnel 2001:470:5:27::2
netsh interface ipv6 add route ::/0 IP6Tunnel 2001:470:5:27::1

all nice ,
only problem ; this is *not* working  -:(

From pc that has ip 2001:470:4:27::2 I can ping 2001:470:5:27::1 and 2001:470:5:27::2 and the world
From pc that has ip 2001:470:5:27::2 I can ping 2001:470:5:27::1 and 2001:470:4:27::2 but the world

Is the problem that he-ipv6 tunnels are limited to a single pc :?:

Thus , Do I need a bgp tunnel instead , to get this working :?:

ps: I dont have a RIR Allocated ASN :wink:

Thanks

make sure you've enabled ipv6 forwarding in sysctl?

[crobertp]

make sure you've enabled ipv6 forwarding in sysctl?

Yes, I did this
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1

sysctl -w will only write the values to the current running kernel, after the next reboot the options will be back to their default values.  Depending on your distribution, you will need to add or modify the options in /etc/sysctl.conf or perform the adjustments through an init script.

Also no you don't need to run BGP. I set up a similar test network up several times a week without issue, except I don't try and hardcode the address on the client, I just RADVD advertise and the systems pick everything up.  The basic radvd config I use is:

interface eth0
{
AdvSendAdvert on;
AdvHomeAgentFlag off;
MinRtrAdvInterval 30;
MaxRtrAdvInterval 100;
prefix 2001:470:A:B::/64
{
AdvOnLink on;
AdvAutonomous on;
AdvRouterAddr on;
};
};

sorry its late and im not reading everything. you dont need to make tunnel interfaces on the clients that want to use the routed /64. if they have ipv6 enabled they should get the address from radvd. unless you are creating sit interfaces for the clients on the linux box, using their tunnel interfaces won't work.

Basically:

1) configure tunnel on linux machine.
2) configure first usable IP of routed range on the interface that faces the LAN (in your case eth2)
3) configure radvd to advertise that range over that interface
4) configure client machines on the LAN to support IPv6, and after 30 seconds they should automatically assign an address

XP/2000/2003 will require an IPv4 nameserver connection for DNS resolution, Vista/2008 won't.
Mac/Linux/BSD are generally already IPv6 enabled and will get an address.

Hi !

Seems that my problem is that nor windows nor linux are using a tunnel 
rather these boxes that are hardwired with cross cable @ 100 mbit/s up/down
they are talking one with the other as if both are native ipv6

However windows is autoconfiguring some weird ip address/gteways on Local Area Connection
as result of radvd advertisments

Code: [Select]

C:\>ipconfig

the worst is that netsh is not allowing the right ip/gateway to be set on Local Area Connection

Code: [Select]

C:\>netsh interface ipv6 add address Local Area Connection 2001:470:5:27::2
The parameter is incorrect.

Thanks

  ops ; I get that pc accessing the world (now is working)

I need to in addition to to dev he-ipv6 to define sit0 too  (to get ipv6  working on lan)
and route /0 via sit1

routed ranges /48 & /64 are connected too  , to dev he-ipv6  w/ nothing routed to
(to allow external access to servers running on other pcs of my lan (most httpd servers with personal pages)

with these changing weird ip addess of autoconf , better  stick with my complicated v4 nat iptables 
*I hope there is way to fix ipv6 ips of lan pcs ,  (so I may stop maitenance on nat iptables)

Thanks

btw: ifconfig on my linux (only to show it) - may help others
