I think someone should post a how-to for connecting medium size businesses to the ipv6 anycast network.. :)
Perhaps some quick documentation on how to do the 6-to-4 nat for an entire /24 ?
Sure, I'll re-work some of my slides and post. Note that 'entire /24' isn't really relevant with 6to4 - a single IPv4 address = IPv6 /48 = 65,536 IPv6 /64 networks. So, background, 6to4 runs on a border router, and lets a native IPv6 network (numbered out of a 6to4 prefix) connect to the IPv6 Internet. Note that it requires IPv6 support from your internal devices - if you have any routers or whatever in your 'medium size' business network then they will require IPv6 support. Alternative to native support inside a network is to run ISATAP, which is a protocol targeted at enterprises which runs automatic IPv6 over IPv4 tunnels to your border router - that border router can run 6to4, or have native connectivity. I'll write up some scenarios, I've got some time to kill on a flight tomorrow. -- Nathan Ward
