Implementing Tunneling Techniques
Tunneling is often used to bridge two disconnected networks. This is done in IPv6 to connect two IPv6 networks through an IPv4 network. There are number of tunneling protocols that can be implemented depending on factors such as topology, address space used, and application.
To configure a tunnel, the tunnel interface must first be created:
Router(config)# int tunnel <#>
Depending on the tunnel type, the configuration varies.
Manual IPv6 in IPv4 tunnels:
The tunnel between two IPv6 networks is manually created over an IPv4 backbone. The source IP/interface is specified along with a destination IP address. IPv6 packets are then encapsulated within an IPv4 ...
