<para>6to4 tunneling with Shorewall can be used to connect your IPv6 network
|

to another IPv6 network over an IPv4 infrastructure. It can also allow you
|

to experiment with IPv6 even if your ISP doesn't provide IPv6
|
|
connectivity.</para>

<title>Configuring IPv6 using my script</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>I have created an init <ulink
|
|
url="/pub/shorewall/contrib/IPv6/ipv6">script</ulink> to make the job of
|
|
configuring your firewall for IPv6 easier.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The script is installed in /etc/init.d and configures ipv6,
|
|
including a 6to4 tunnel, at boot time. Note that the script is included
|
|
in the Shorewall6 distribution but is not installed in /etc/init.d by
|
|
default. The RPMs from shorewall.net, install the file in the package
|
|
documentation directory.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The script works on OpenSuSE 11.0 and may need modification for
|
|
other distributions. On OpenSuSE, the script is installed by copying it
|
|
to <filename>/etc/init.d/</filename> then running the command 'chkconfig
|
|
--add ipv6'.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>At the top of the script, you will see several variables:</para>

<para>You will notice that sit1, eth2 and eth4 each have an IPv6 address
|
|
beginning with 2002: -- All 6to4 IPv6 addresses have that in their most
|
|
significant 16 bits. The next 32-bits (ce7c:92b4) encode the IPv4
|
|
ADDRESS (206.124.146.180). So once you start the 6to4 tunnel, you are
|
|
the proud owner of 2<superscript>80</superscript> IPv6 addresses! In the
|
|
case shown here, 2002:ce7c:92b4::/48. The SLA is used to assign each
|
|
interface in INTERFACES, a subnet of 2<superscript>64</superscript>
|
|
addresses; in the case of eth2, 2002:ce7c:92b4:1::/64.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>I run <ulink url="http://www.litech.org/radvd/">radvd</ulink> on
|

the firewall to allow hosts conntected to eth2 and eth4 to automatically

<note>
|

<para>radvd terminates immediately if IPv6 forwarding is not enabled.

So it is a good idea to include this in<filename>

<programlisting>net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding = 1</programlisting>

<para>That way, if radvd starts before Shorewall6, it will continue to

run.</para>

<para>An alternative is to modify

<filename>/etc/init.d/radvd</filename> so that radvd starts after

<para>You will note that the public IPv6 address of eth2

(2002:ce7c:92b4:2:2a0:ccff:fedb:31c4) was formed by concatenating the

prefix for eth2 shown in radvd.conf (2002:ce7c:92b4:2) and the lower 64
|
|
bits of the link level address of eth2 (2a0:ccff:fedb:31c4). You will
|
|
also notice that the address 2002:ce7c:92b4:2:2a0:ccff:fedb:31c4 appears

<title>Connecting two IPv6 Networks, by Eric de Thouars</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Suppose that we have the following situation:</para>
|
|
|
|
<graphic fileref="images/TwoIPv6Nets1.png" />
|
|
|
|
<para>We want systems in the 2002:100:333::/64 subnetwork to be able to
|
|
communicate with the systems in the 2002:488:999::/64 network. This is
|
|
accomplished through use of the
|
|
<filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> file and the <quote>ip</quote>
|
|
utility for network interface and routing configuration.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Unlike GRE and IPIP tunneling, the
|
|
<filename>/etc/shorewall/policy</filename>,
|
|
<filename>/etc/shorewall/interfaces</filename> and
|
|
<filename>/etc/shorewall/zones</filename> files are not used. There is no
|
|
need to declare a zone to represent the remote IPv6 network. This remote
|
|
network is not visible on IPv4 interfaces and to iptables. All that is
|
|
visible on the IPv4 level is an IPv4 stream which contains IPv6 traffic.
|
|
Separate IPv6 interfaces and ip6tables rules need to be defined to handle
|
|
this traffic.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>In <filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> on system A, we need
|
|
the following:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
|
|
6to4 net 134.28.54.2</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>This entry in <filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> opens the
|
|
firewall so that the IPv6 encapsulation protocol (41) will be accepted
|
|
to/from the remote gateway.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Use the following commands to setup system A:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>><command>ip tunnel add tun6to4 mode sit ttl 254 remote 134.28.54.2</command>
|
|
><command>ip link set dev tun6to4 up</command>
|
|
><command>ip addr add 3ffe:8280:0:2001::1/64 dev tun6to4</command>
|
|
><command>ip route add 2002:488:999::/64 via 3ffe:8280:0:2001::2</command></programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>Similarly, in <filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> on system
|
|
B we have:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
|
|
6to4 net 206.191.148.9</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>And use the following commands to setup system B:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>><command>ip tunnel add tun6to4 mode sit ttl 254 remote 206.191.148.9</command>
|
|
><command>ip link set dev tun6to4 up</command>
|
|
><command>ip addr add 3ffe:8280:0:2001::2/64 dev tun6to4</command>
|
|
><command>ip route add 2002:100:333::/64 via 3ffe:8280:0:2001::1</command></programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>On both systems, restart Shorewall and issue the configuration
|
|
commands as listed above. The systems in both IPv6 subnetworks can now
|
|
talk to each other using IPv6.</para>
