NOTE:

No destination address needs to be configured for a 6to4 tunnel because the destination address can
automatically be obtained from the IPv4 address embedded in the 6to4 IPv6 address.

To encapsulate and forward IPv6 packets whose destination address does not belong to the subnet
where the receiving tunnel interface resides, you need to configure a static route to reach the destination
IPv6 address through this tunnel interface on the device. Because automatic tunnels do not support

dynamic routing, you can configure a static route to that destination IPv6 address with this tunnel

interface as the outbound interface or the peer tunnel interface address as the next hop. A similar
configuration needs to be performed at the other tunnel end. For the detailed configuration, see

IPv6

Static Routing Configuration in the IP Routing Volume.

The automatic tunnel interfaces using the same encapsulation protocol cannot share the same source IP
address.

6to4 Tunnel Configuration Example

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 9

, two 6to4 networks are connected to an IPv4 network through two 6to4 devices

(Device A and Device B) respectively. Configure a 6to4 tunnel to make Host A and Host B reachable to

each other.
To enable communication between 6to4 networks, you need to configure 6to4 addresses for 6to4

devices and hosts in the 6to4 networks.

The IPv4 address of GigabitEthernet 1/2 on Device A is 2.1.1.1/24, and the corresponding 6to4
prefix is 2002:0201:0101::/48 after it is translated to an IPv6 address. Assign interface tunnel 0 to

subnet 2002:0201:0101::/64 and GigabitEthernet 1/1 to subnet 2002:0201:0101:1::/64.

The IPv4 address of GigabitEthernet 1/2 on Device B is 5.1.1.1/24, and the corresponding 6to4
prefix is 2002:0501:0101::/48 after it is translated to an IPv6 address. Assign interface tunnel 0 to

subnet 2002:0501:0101::/64 and GigabitEthernet 1/1 to subnet 2002:0501:0101:1::/64.
