From fa857afcf77da669eb6b7031ec07ad14b912c307 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明 Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2009 23:43:14 +0000 Subject: ipv6 sit: 6rd (IPv6 Rapid Deployment) Support. IPv6 Rapid Deployment (6rd; draft-ietf-softwire-ipv6-6rd) builds upon mechanisms of 6to4 (RFC3056) to enable a service provider to rapidly deploy IPv6 unicast service to IPv4 sites to which it provides customer premise equipment. Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network infrastructure. Unlike 6to4, a 6rd service provider uses an IPv6 prefix of its own in place of the fixed 6to4 prefix. With this option enabled, the SIT driver offers 6rd functionality by providing additional ioctl API to configure the IPv6 Prefix for in stead of static 2002::/16 for 6to4. Original patch was done by Alexandre Cassen based on old Internet-Draft. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S.
