Browsers do not prefer IPv6
Shadow Hawkins on Sunday, 28 November 2010 22:59:59
I have set up my tunnel on my Windows7 PC and everything works fine with one exception...my browsers will not connect to IPv6 sites using a FQDN.
ping -6 ipv6.google.com / no problem for all sites
tracert -6 ipv6.google.com / no problem for all sites
http://[2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7] in browser / no problem for all sites
http://ipv6.google.com does not work
http://www.kame.net no dancing turtle :(
(this is the same for IE, Chrome, Firefox and Opera).
Wireshark shows that:
- With Chrome my PC is just requesting A records.
- With Opera it is requesting first A then AAAA, gets responses to both and displays the IPv4 site (kame).
- With IE only A records (www.ipv6.sixxs.net).
When I start my tunnel I get the following error:
c:\aiccu>aiccu-console start
Succesfully retrieved tunnel information for T47241
[warning] Error opening registry key: SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D

[AYIYA-start] : Anything in Anything (draft-02)
[AYIYA-tun->tundev] : (Socket to TUN) started
and the window hangs. CTL-C kills the tunnel. Is this normal?
The interface however is up:

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Just noticed that this problem may be the same as the one in another thread "IPv6 works on CMD, not in browser" (https://www.sixxs.net/forum/?msg=setup-2834721). To date they don't have the answer either.

Problem solved... I added my ULA to the physical interface on my PC. The tunnel is still configured with the global address. The FQDN now works in the browser as well. I assume it has something to do with the browsers not recognizing the tun0 interface as a real IPv6 interface.

Right.
I think there's something regarding this in the Wiki...if there isn't, there need to be

You said Problem was solved? How?
I'm just curious what a ULA and a FQND might be?

Google will tell you everything you need to know.
Basically you need to assign a public IPv6 address to your network interface.
