Hi all,
is it possible that the mechanism described on page 729 - 731 in the 7th edition is not named "6to4"?
Please take a look at RFC 3056 (Page2):
"IPv6 sites or hosts connected using this method do not require IPv4-
compatible IPv6 addresses [MECH] or configured tunnels. In this way
IPv6 gains considerable independence of the underlying wide area
network and can step over many hops of IPv4 subnets. The abbreviated
name of this mechanism is 6to4 (not to be confused with [6OVER4])."
So the configuration can not be a "6to4" tunnel. But maybe "6over4" is the correct name? Can anybody help me to understand this? I´m a little confused... ;)
Thanks & best regards
