Hi
I have a topology with a set of ipv6-only-hosts
and a set of ipv4-only-hosts as follows:
IPv6 Hosts IPv4 Hosts
| |
| |
| |
+--------+-----------+
|
|
IPv4/IPv6 Dual Stack Gateway
||
||
||
||
||
IPv4/IPv6 Dual Stack Relay Router
|
|
|
6Bone ISP
My goal is to provide global-ipv6-connectivity to the IPv6-hosts.
Approach:
----------------
To accomplish this goal, I have configured a dual-stack-relay-router.
From each of the dual-stack-gateways, i have configured 6to4
tunnels to the dual-stack-relay-router. From the dual-stack-relay-
router, i intend to connect to 6Bone.
If the IPv4 address of dual-stack-gateway is 1.2.3.4, the IPv6
address of the gateway is 2002:0102:0304::1/64, and the prefix delegated
to the IPv6-hosts within that home would be 2002:0102:0304:0001 (64 bits).
If the IPv4 address of dual-stack-relay-router is 5.6.7.8, the IPv6
address of the relay-router is 2002:0506:0708::1/64.
My questions to you:
-------------------------------
On this front, can you please let me know if my approach is right?
With this kind of configuration to the IPv6 hosts, will I
be able to provide global connectivity to the ipv6-hosts?
Is 6to4 tunnels the right approach to use to connect the gateways to
relay-router? And if so, how should i configure the ipv6-routing-
tables in the gateways to forward all the ipv6 traffic to the
relay-router?
How should i configure the relay-router to connect to 6bone? Do we
use native-ipv6 or 6to4-tunnel?
Is there a better approach to solve this problem?
Since i am new to 6bone, i would greatly appreciate any help or pointers.
With best rgds.
Ravi
