Can't setup IPv6 tunnel
Hello,
I am trying to set up an IPv6 tunnel but I have no sit0 device. How do I set this up so I can create a tunnel? Thanks, KW |
I guess you'd get the tunnel only once you have a properly configured client running. Is IPv6 enabled on your machine (e.g. can you see ::1 in /sbin/ifconfig -a?)? And what client are you using? Once its installed and running you ought to be able to see your tunneling interface.
(My experience is limited to running this free client, and that one was pretty easy to set up) |
ifconfig lo shows me inet6 address is ::1/128 so I have ipv6 enabled. However modprobe for sit and ipv6 show no output. I also did lsmod | grep ipv6 with this output:
nf_conntrack_ipv6 33272 4 nf_conntrack 79188 6 nf_conntrack_ipv6,xt_state,iptable_nat,nf_nat,nf_conntrack_netbios_ns,nf_conntrack_ipv4 ipv6 281064 19 ip6t_REJECT,nf_conntrack_ipv6,ip6table_mangle ls mod | grep sit produces nothing. Thanks KW |
And the tunneling client? Have you installed it and run it? That should create the sit0 tunnel for you.
If you want to do it manually, you could see one of the subsections in this link. See if that bit works. |
I wasn't aware the tunneling client was something entirely different. I guess that's what I need.
