6to4 on a Cisco

On the Ethernet 0/0 add this command:

ip mtu 1480

And assuming you have converted the IPv4 address correctly to it's hex
equivalent it looks like it should work then. Make sure you check the
routing tables as well.

Hope this helps.

Has somebody ever configured 6to4-tunneling on a Cisco ???

I tried, but I can't get it work. I have been using the IPv6 kit from
Microsoft for Windows2000, which perfectly connects to the microsoft
6to4-relay router, but when I try to use my own Cisco I get the following
error:
<>
c:\>6to4cfg -R 213.x.x.x
Probing 6to4 relay router 213.x.x.x...
Could not reach a 6to4 relay router.
<>

This means that to problem is with the Cisco router. I got the config from
the IPv6-IOS command list:
I use the following IOS version:
<>
IOS (tm) 3600 Software (C3620-IS-M), Experimental Version
12.1(20001029:175720) [otroan-samhain 114]

<config for Sixco>

b.t.w. Static tunnels to my linux-box work fine !
