To encapsulate and forward IPv6 packets whose destination address does not belong to the subnet

where the receiving tunnel interface resides, 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 is required at the other tunnel end. For the detailed configuration, see Layer 3—IP

Routing Configuration Guide.

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

Configuration procedure

Follow these steps to configure a 6to4 tunnel:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view —

Enable IPv6

ipv6

Required
By default, the IPv6 packet forwarding

function is disabled.

Enter tunnel interface view

interface tunnel number

ipv6 address { ipv6-address
prefix-length
|

ipv6-address/prefix-length }

Configure an
IPv6 global

unicast

address or a

site-local
address

ipv6 address
ipv6-address/prefix-length eui-64

Required.
Use either command.
By default, no IPv6 global unicast
address or site-local address is

configured for the tunnel interface.

ipv6 address auto link-local

Configure an
IPv6 address

for the tunnel

interface

Configure an
IPv6 link-local

address

ipv6 address ipv6-address
link-local

Optional
By default, a link-local address will

automatically be generated when an
IPv6 global unicast address or site-local

address is configured.

Specify the 6to4 tunnel mode

tunnel-protocol ipv6-ipv4 6to4

Required
GRE over IPv4 tunnel by default.
The same tunnel mode should be
configured at both ends of the tunnel.

Otherwise, packet delivery will fail.

Configure a source address or
interface for the tunnel

source { ip-address |
interface-type interface-number }

Required
By default, no source address or
interface is configured for the tunnel.

Return to system view

quit

Enable dropping of IPv6
packets using IPv4-compatible

IPv6 addresses

tunnel discard
ipv4-compatible-packet

Optional
Disabled by default.
