tsrc Client_IPv4_Address tdst Server_IPv4_Address up
addif Client_IPv6_Address Server_IPv6_Address up

Add the permanent IPv6 default gateway:
route -p add -inet6 default Server_IPv6_Address

(Tested on Solaris 10 5/09 and 10/09, OpenSolaris 2009.06 and 2010.02 preview snv_127)

Linux (RHEL / Fedora / CentOS) IPv6 tunnel setup

Create /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-sit1 file:

DEVICE=sit1
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6TUNNELIPV4=Server_IPv4_Address
IPV6TUNNELIPV4LOCAL=Client_IPv4_Address
IPV6ADDR=Client_IPv6_Address/64


Add the following to /etc/sysconfig/network file:

NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
IPV6_DEFAULTDEV=sit1

(Tested with Fedora 11 and 12, CentOS 5.3 and 5.4)

FreeBSD IPv6 tunnel setup

Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf file:

gif_interfaces="gif0"
gifconfig_gif0="Client_IPv4_Address Server_IPv4_Address"
ipv6_enable="YES"
ipv6_network_interfaces="lo0 gif0"
ipv6_ifconfig_gif0="Client_IPv6_Address prefixlen 128"
ipv6_defaultrouter="Server_IPv6_Address"

(Tested with FreeBSD 6.4)
