   On 10/01/15, Michiel van der Vlist pondered and said...   
       
    Mv> Using a Raspberry PI as an IPv6 router. Interesting experiment...   
      
   Yep!   
      
    Mv> I see more that one address, but they all start with  2001:4428:200:816c:   
    Mv>    
    Mv> In order to route IPv6 to your LAN, you do not just need a tunnel, you   
    Mv> need a subnet as well. Have you ebnabled your subnet at SixXs yet?   
      
   Yes it comes with one by default   
      
    Mv> The tunnel and the subnet have different prefixes. The devices on the LAN   
    Mv> should get addresses in the range that is assigned to the subnet, not   
    Mv> that of the tunnel.   
      
   Understood and that's what the Pi should be issuing to the LAN clients   
      
    Mv> What does your configuration page on SixXs say about your address ranges?   
      
   The subnet range is a /64 range and the above address is the subnet one.   
      
   I realised I need to port forward using ip6tables traffic for binkd and I   
   think I know how so will try and do this tonight.   
      
   Best, Paul
