Another solution is to enable ebgp-multihop on both BGP speakers, but I'm not sure this is a 'good' solution. Setting the TTL seems like the right thing to do here.
!! TTL Settings for BGP peering in debian (route2)
-To get my BGP link to run over an IPv6 tunnel I've had to set the TTL of the tunnel to 255 by adding 'TTL 255' to the tunnels stanza in /etc/network/interfaces.
+To get my BGP link to run over an IPv6 tunnel I've had to set the TTL of the tunnel to 255 by adding 'TTL 255' to the tunnels stanza in /etc/network/interfaces. If setting the 'ttl 255' fragment to your tunnel stanza doesn't work, try adding the following:
+
+ up /sbin/ip tunnel change $dev ttl 255
+
+Where $dev is your device name
.
So far its working for one of my tunnels, just have to wait and see if it works for the other
