static ipv6 with aiccu tunnel setup problem
Shadow Hawkins on Wednesday, 26 January 2011 17:58:17
[IPv4 Internet] --- [Linksys WRT120N] -- [SWITCH]
Following hosts are connected to [SWITCH]
- LAPTOP : Ubuntu Linux 10.10
- PC : Ubuntu Linux 10.10
- Virtual Machine @ PC1 : WinXP Pro SP3 32b
I've ordered a Linksys E2000 to run dd-wrt on which will host my SixXS tunnel.
But it could still take 7 days to be shipped...
For now, I want to have LAPTOP running my tunnel. And I like to add static ipv6 addresses to PC and VM@PC.
This is my subnet from SixXS : 2001:subnet:subnet::/48
I want to use following subnet : 2001:subnet:subnet:cafe::/64
Goal:
LAPTOP: 2001:subnet:subnet:cafe:feed::1/64
PC : 2001:subnet:subnet:cafe:feed::2/64
VM@PC : 2001:subnet:subnet:cafe:feed::3/64
Configurations (I already made)
LAPTOP (full ipv6 connectivity)

VM@PC
how do I add a static ipv6 address to a LAN Adapter?
Do I have to add a static route? How?
Problems:
PC doesn't have IPv6 connectivity (connect: Network is unreachable)
VM@PC doesn't have IPv6 connectivity at all.

I also can ping6 from PC1 to LAPTOP and vica versa
i've added "ip -6 route add default dev eth0"

If you go the static route you need to add two routes:
one is a route to the subnet and the other one is the default route.
To add static ip to laptop, use the method that is compatible with the linux distribution you are using. Not sure about Ubuntu, but I'm guessing it is similar to Debian, ie. change the /ect/network/interfaces file and add your static IPv6 address there.
iface eth0 inet static
address 2001:blah
netmask 64
up ip -6 route add 2001:subnet:subnet:cafe::/64 dev eth0
up ip -6 route add default via (ip address router) dev eth0
This should be all that is needed for your ubuntu laptop, static ip + the two routes that are needed on bootup.
For the XP machine, you set static IP address and gateway in the normal (gui way)
You might need to add a route to the subnet by using:
netsh int ipv6 add route 2001:subnet:subnet:cafe::/64 idx
where idx is the inderface identifier, which you can obtain by issuing netsh int ipv6 show int

Thanks for you answers so far..
Now what I want to know, "ip address router", what should I put there?
- The ipv6 local loop of LAPTOP (which is my router)?
- The ipv4 of LAPTOP

The IP address of your router is either wan0 global IPv6 address (2001:subnet:subnet:cafe:feed::1) or wan0 link local address (fe80::200:00ff:feb8:ff3b) either will work. AS LONG as you have enabled IPv6 forwarding.
for more info,refer to this link:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPv6
For XP, you need to add IPv6 stack before you will be able to set it's ipv6 static address, but I assume you already done that.

sorry the correct line should of course be:
iface eth0 inet6 static
