Hello,
Now that I have several machines running FreeBSD 4.0, I started to
play with IPv6. It's fun! I have plans to set up a v6-over-v4 tunnel
and connect to the 6Bone.
I read /usr/share/examples/IPv6/USAGE, /usr/share/doc/IPv6/IMPLEMENTATION
and some documents at the KAME web site. However, I still have to figure out
how to assign a not-link-local address (i.e., a site or global address) to
the [unique] Ethernet interface of each host in an automatic manner (from
/etc/rc.conf). After reading /etc/rc.network6 I concluded that no addresses
apart from the link-local ones are assigned to the interfaces. I am using
ifconfig manually to do this (BTW, I found that there is no need to specify
"alias"). I am new to IPv6, so maybe I am asking for something with no
sense...
My congratulations to the IPv6 team. Great job!
TIA,
-- JMA
