Problem configuring IPV6 - Kindly help

[Michael David <servers.david%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hi all,

 I am a new user to NetBSD although I am well conversant with Linux and FreeBSD.

I have configured my server with IPV4 address and it runs well - See technichristian.net

I am having a lot of problem configuring IPV6.

I want to configure the server with a Native static IPV6 address.

Here is what I have done so far:

In /etc/rc.conf: I have: ip6mode=host

In /etc/ifconfig.re0: I have:inet6 2a02:e00:ffff:23:a00b:9aff:feed:88ea prefixlen 64 alias

where 2a02:e00:ffff:23:a00b:9aff:feed:88ea is the static IP I want to assign to my server.

I do not know how to set the IPV6 gateway.

So, in /etc/rc.local I added: route -n add -inet6 default 2a02:e00:ffff:23::1

where 2a02:e00:ffff:23::1 is my IPv6 gateway.

When I ping ipv6.google.com, I get:

localhost# ping6 ipv6.google.com
PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) 2a02:e00:ffff:23:a00b:9aff:feed:88ea --> 2a00:1450:400c:c00::63
ping6: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping6: wrote ipv6.l.google.com 16 chars, ret=-1
ping6: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping6: wrote ipv6.l.google.com 16 chars, ret=-1
ping6: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping6: wrote ipv6.l.google.com 16 chars, ret=-1
ping6: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping6: wrote ipv6.l.google.com 16 chars, ret=-1
ping6: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping6: wrote ipv6.l.google.com 16 chars, ret=-1

The system does not take my gateway and instead has some other IPv6 value called 2a00:1450:400c:c00::63 that I never assigned.

Please let me know how to get this working. This is NATIVE IPv6 assigned manually that I want to get working. Someone, please guide.

Everything else works beautifully and I am loving NetBSD so far. Only this remains.

Thanks
Michael
