This will cause zebra to do router announcements on eth0 for your internal ranges. Any machine on that network will hear the router announcements and will automatically assign itself an IP address out of that range.
Make sure your client machines have ipv6 enabled see [IPv6Setup] for more information on this.

+*NOTE* that you probably don't want to use Zebra. Use radvd instead, zebra is rather broken. See the notes in [6to4] for setting up radvd.
!! Some things to consider
* The IP addresses that you now have on your gateway and client machines ARE world-routable. You may want to firewall them. See [IP6Tables].
* The IP address of your wan1 interface is not in your /48 it is your tunnel endpoint

!! Configure zebra to do ipv6 peering over the metanet
* First, upgrade Etud, the old version has a bug where you can't assign IPv6 addresses to the wan0 interface. Oops.[1]

-* talk to JamesSpooner or PerryLorier about organising ipv6 [BGP]

+* IPv6 peering is configurable via the metanet maintenance pages
. I assume you're already
peering IPv4, so go to www

-(this is to peer with JamesSpooner, use peer address fe80::2c0:f0ff:fe96:c86 to peer with PerryLorier).
Congratulate yourself and randomly ping people on the metanet.

-Note that this is development only, we will get get ns.tla doing the peering later, so be ready to change your configs at some later stage... :)
-
-Note: We are now using LinkLocal addresses rather than an allocation from someones range. If these don't ping right have a look at their Wiki Entry.
[1]: Etud was echoing packets that the kernel sent back to itself. This had the problem that the kernel would say "Is anyone using this address" and then would hear that yes, someone is using it (itself!) so it would stop using it. Doh.
