[aklug] Re: IPv6 routers and switches

I started running my home network dual-stack about a year ago. The
firewall/router I'm using is a regular PC imaged with Vyatta. Go to
www.vyatta.org.
Then get a tunnel from Hurricane Electric (tunnelbroker.net). Vyatta
sells commercial versions of their software, but the "community
release" is free and is an easy setup. Burn the ISO, boot the PC, and
run some of their sample configs. If you have an experience
configuring Cisco, this isn't French and will be easy to understand.

Let me know if you need sample configs. As everyone else said, IPv6
is Layer ~3 so any devices lower than that on the OSI model - i.e.
layer 2 Ethernet switches - don't care what Layer 3 protocol you're
running.

Cheers,

Scott
