1990512028, 1:58 IPv6 Automatic St04 Tunneling Search Q © |Pv6 Automatic 6to4 Tunneling Dynamic multipoint IPv6 tunnels are another migration technique we can use. It’s called dynamic because we don't have to specify the end-point |Pv4 address ourselves, but it is being automatically determined. The downside of multipoint IPv6 tunnels is that they don’t support IPV6 IGPs. You have to use static routes or BGP. There are two different flavors: * Automatic 6to4 + ISATAP. Let's dive into the automatic 6to4 tunnel to see how it works, We don't configure the IPv4 end-point address ourselves, but instead, the IPv4 end-point address will be wrapped in the IPv6 destination address. Our IPv4 address is only 32-bit, so it's easy to fit itn a 128-bit IPv6 address, right? The 2002::/16 range has been reserved to use for tunneling, This IPv6 address space is only for tunneling and will never be used for IPv6 global unicast addresses. If we start with the 2002::/16 prefix, we create a /48 prefix for each tunnel end-point. We have to take the IPv4 address of the end-point and convert it into hexadecimal as bits 17 to 48. ‘The second step is to create subnets from /48 up to /64 prefixes for all the subnets behind the end-point. pluie Prefix IPv4 address in HEX Here's a graphical overview. 2002::/16 is the range we can use for the tunnels. The second part is the IPv4 end-point address converted to hexadecimal. Up to /64, we can use to create subnets, COA8:1703 converts to IPv4 address 192.168.23.3. Do you have trouble calculating from hex to binary/decimal and vice versa? hitpstnetworklessans.comiciscafece-rauting-ewichingthow-{o-configure-pvS-aulomatic6lot-tunnaling 191990512028, 1:58 IPv6 Automatic 6t04 Tunneling a R3(config)#ipv6 general-prefix MYPREFIX 6to4 fastEthernet 0/2 R3ishow ipvé general-prefix IPV6 Prefix MYPREFIX, acquired via 6to4. 2002:CoAB:1703::/48 It will convert the IPv4 address in hexadecimal and give you the correct IPv6 tunnel prefix with the show ipv6 general-prefix command.

I think what would be cool is a follow-up blog entry on why the 6to4 automatic tunnels should NOT be Used today in anything other than the lab networks, The 6to4 mechanism itself is pretty cool b can create the problems if used for one’s real-world lve traffic. Managed tunnels, if one has to use tunnels, are a much better approach. & men Is it possible if we use dynamic routing protocol instead of static route for both of ipys segments ? Futura(config)#ipvs route 2801: :3/128 2002:c@ns:1703: Futura(config)#ipvé route 2¢02::/16 tunnel @ Destiny(conFig)#ipvé route 2001::1/128 2002:CeA8:C0: Destiny(config)#ipys route 2002::/16 tunnel @ ‘or we just use static route for ipv6 route 2002:/16 tunnel 0 as recursive routing whereas for segment ipv6 2001::Y¥/128 we use dynamic route. Is it possible ? please advice me. 2 ReneMolenaar Hi Anata, For the automatic 6to4 tunneling we carrt use dynamic routing on the Tunnel interfaces. If you have a lot of 1PV6 prefixes, its better to create some tunnels yourself and configure EIGRP or OSPFV3 on it, Rene jolramospr Gres explanation an example e | did the same scenario using BGP instead of static routing, hitpstnetworklessons.comicsca/ece-ruting-switchingthow-lo-confg ipve-automatc-Slo‘-tunnaling 891990512028, 1:58 IPv6 Automatic 6t04 Tunneling a Glad to hear you lke itJose!
