ipv6 Static tunnel on a Vserver
[de] Shadow Hawkins on Friday, 08 August 2008 10:50:30
Hi I've got a small vserver with a static ipv4. Debian Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Now I will setup an ipv6 static tunnel. (by the way, the dynamic Tunnel with aicca and ayiya works fine) At fist I started aiccu test /etc/aiccu.conf It runs until the test [5/8]. There I get the Message: connect: Network is unreachable and: SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device ioctl: No such device It looks like, that the sixxs (device) can't be created. But with a dynamic tunnel, the sixxs (device) will be created! And it works too. Has anybody got an idea here? Thank you Thomas

Maybe you do have 'tun' support, but not the 'sit' module, which provides support for proto-41 tunnels? Type '/sbin/ifconfig -a' and see if you have a sit0 device, if you don't then you don't have that module. Also note that heartbeat tunnels are also 'dynamic' but they still use proto-41, and thus the sit device, thus when referring to a certain tunnel type, just call it by it's name.

Hi, thanks for your answer. My dynamic Tunnel is a ayiya. And I can't see any sit0 device. Hm, so my only possibility for ipv6 is to use a dynamic ayiya tunnel with the vserver? Kind regards. Thomas

If this is for example an Strato server, No ipv6 is in the Kernel. Because of the system strato uses, you cannot deploy ipv6. Try the command "modprobe ipv6" Probably won't work.

Hi, you are right, my vserver is a strato vserver. Good guess :-) But ipv6 works fine. But only with a dynamic ayiya tunnel. The dynamic tunnel with heartbeat or the static doesn't work.
