It is exactly the same 'type of tunnel' as the first setup.
This time, you have boxA46 | routerA4 | routerB4 | boxB46

Assuming your routers speak only IPv4, and they can route traffic
from boxA to boxB, you can set up a tunnel between the two
solaris machines.

Let us say boxA is IPv4 address 10.0.1.2 and boxB is 10.0.2.2

On boxA, you would create /etc/hostname6.ip.tun0 with contents:
-- 
tsrc 10.0.1.2 tdst 10.0.2.2 up
addif 3ffe:8114:3000::0 3ffe:8114:3000::1 up
--

and on boxB, /etc/hostname6.ip.tun0 becomes:
-- 
tsrc 10.0.2.2 tdst 10.0.1.2 up
addif 3ffe:8114:3000::1 3ffe:8114:3000::0 up
--

You can then ping6 the other endpoint (ping6 is not standard
software for Solaris, but ping works in both address families)

happy pinging :)
