ipv6 routing?
[de] Shadow Hawkins on Thursday, 22 February 2007 19:05:09
I got my tunnel and my subnet up, i can ping6 the inner ipv6 address of my firewall from an external host just fine, but i can't ping any external ipv6 address from an internal host on my subnet... whats going on here? radvd is up and running, my internal hosts get ipv6 adresses just fine, but as their ipv6 default gateway they don't get the gateways official ipv6 address, but a strange one: fe80::248:54ff:fe00:c604 my gateway is a suse 10.0 box running susefirewall, the tunnel is set up with aiccu and works just fine. anyone got a few hints for me? bye, MH

That is correct as that is the link local address of the interface. Check if you have forwarding enabled on all the interfaces on your gateway and check if your ip6tables is not blocking anything. Then try tcpdump to see what goes wrong where.
ipv6 routing, especially windows xp

ok, now i got my ip6tables set up so that my internal hosts see "the world" via ipv6...at least, the linux machines do. Windows xp machines (set up as in https://noc.sixxs.net/faq/connectivity/?faq=ossetup&os=windows) only get adresses from the fe80:: range, and thus can't talk ipv6 to the world. how do i fix that? seems that i just had to wait a few minutes for XP to get the right ipv6 stuff from radvd. bye, MH
