Cisco router IPv6 snippets /w RIP config

[Mithrandir]

If you're bored anyway,

Let's see,
Since I'm a dope in cisco routers explain me how to advertise one IPv6
network to the other.
I still don't understand how one router knows the other or how I can let
them communicate.
In other words i'm missing something.

The setup is very easy.
IPv6host-6/4router-tunnel-6/4router-IPv6host.
But, there are 4 different ways to tunnel.
When I get the above configuration to work it is only a matter of ...euhm,
wel anyway I'll try.

Oh is there somebody that can share the 12.1 IOS for Cisco 2500 series
routers?
I can't get them from the cisco site since we got the routers from another
company that did not needed them anymore.

We are still figuring out where you got the IPv6 addresses in the Tunnel?
In other words : Why? and where did you get them?

eg.:interface tunnel0
description tunnel to viagenie
no ip address
no ip directed-broadcast
ipv6 adress 3ffe:b00:c18::33/127 ???
"3ffe" always seem to be the same, but where do the other bits come from?
Do you invent them? or are they given to you by an organization?
Anyway I just hope it is a simple explenation.

Thanks Guys,
Groeten van Mithrandir.
