What I think we need to do after configuring this with UNH on the east
coast.  Is determine a way of automating prefix distribution on the
6bone with the tunnel end points.  You should be able to directly send
to UNH which is our leg of the 6bone on the U.S. East coast. And not
have to go through West Coast given the prefix of the node based on RFC
1897.  We should have the East Coast end point up soon.

If we could develop an algorithm to generate the IPv4-Tunnel end point
from the prefix which may be possible using RFC 1897 that would help a
lot.
