XP and weird routing ![[fi]](/s/countries/fi.gif) Carmen Sandiego on Tuesday, 28 October 2003 09:53:00 
Seems like my traffic is just taking whatever route it wants in IPv6 environment. I'm using my Linux box as ISATAP router, and it seems to be working fine, but XP is for reasons having two routes. I have IPv4-gateway defined, which is different from IPv6-gateway. I've tried to delete the ::/0 route, but it always comes up again automatically (apparently it's not meant to be deleted).
But this is all I came up with:
netsh interface ipv6>show route
Publish  Type      Met  Prefix                    Idx  Gateway/Interface Name
-------  --------  ---  ------------------------  ---  ------------------------
no       Autoconf  256  ::/0                        4  fe80::210:a7ff:fe02:fe32
no       Autoconf    8  2001:960:645::/48           4  Local Area Connection 3
netsh interface ipv6>isatap show router
Relay Name          : 130.233.21.101
Use Relay           : default
Resolution Interval : default
netsh interface ipv6>6to4 show state
6to4 Service State  : disabled
Undo on Service Stop: default
And what happens?
E:\Documents and Settings\michael>ping6 www.6bone.net
Pinging 6bone.net [3ffe:b00:c18:1::10]

So whoop, why is it trying fe80 address? It seems ISATAP is working, it's getting information and all, but routing isn't using ISATAP. I've tried enabling / disabling network interface, rebooting machine, nothing helps.
What am I missing?-) Microsoft's documents didn't help much, I googled to some other IPv6-sites with instructions, they didn't fix it either.

Check if there is an RA on the network to which Interface 4 (see "netsh interface ipv6 show address") causes the default gateway to be created. It specifies AutoConf thus it was done with RA's on that interface.
Why use ISATAP btw? Apparently interface 8 has the correct configuration directly.

Interface 8 gets it's IP address from ISATAP, that's mostly the reason it gets it right. However I don't know where the interface 4 gets it. Maybe there is one in the network, is there any way to prevent XP from using it, since it's not working?

Depends on what type of Interface it is.
Type "netsh interface ipv6" and then: "show interface" and "show teredo" and "show state" and other values that show up there. XP has a number of transition mechanisms in place so it can be any one of those.

Do not show anything new. Interface is normal local are connection, teredo isn't in use, and use state shows this time "default". I've set this to state disabled also, without any help to actual connection.
The following sub-contexts are available:
 6to4 isatap
So, no help there either. Under isatap, show router shows only the real one. Show destinationcache tells following:

What is this: 2002:82e9:15ac::82e9:15ac ? It points to my IPv4, however it's some XS4ALL TB-service (according to traceroute) ? mm, however.

2002::/16 does go over XS4ALL as they are announcing that prefix.
