! 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]
-* Routers will refuse to do autoconf, so you need to statically allocate yourself an
IP address. Your IP is 3ffe:b80:1f6b:cafe::''the-hex-version-of-
your-AS#-here''/64
.
+* Establish your link-local
IP address for
your wan0(or whichever) interface
.
* talk to JamesSpooner or PerryLorier about organising ipv6 [BGP] peering.
+
You will need in your bgpd.conf:
- neighbor 3ffe
:b80
:1f6b
:cafe
::fd90
remote-as 64912
+ neighbor fe80
::200
:e8ff
:fe4e
:7ae4
remote-as 64912
+ neighbor fe80::200:e8ff:fe4e:7ae4 interface wan0
!
address-family ipv6
network ''your-ipv6-network-here''
- neighbor 3ffe
:b80
:1f6b
:cafe
::fd90
activate
+ neighbor fe80
::200
:e8ff
:fe4e
:7ae4
activate
exit-address-family
-(replace fd90
with fd85 if you are peering
with PerryLorier).
+(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.
! Configure DNS
* A top priority for you should be to configure DNS so that we can ping you without using those nasty hexadecimal IPv6 addresses.
* More coming later.. http://www.isi.edu/~bmanning/v6DNS.html may be usefull
* You can get reverse DNS delegated for your /48... See http://www.freenet6.net/reverse-dns.shtml for more info.
