Problems w/IPv6 router address
Hi there...I'm trying to build an IPv6 tunnel broker in Linux using bird as a routing daemon, and I'm running into trouble. Right now I'm just trying to make sure that I can add IPv6 tunnels/devices manually, and I keep getting the error "Router IDs must be entered as hexadecimal numbers or IPv4 addresses in IPv6 version". I've tried adding addresses in these forms: router id 3ffe:1200:3028:ff01:0000:0000:0000:124e; router id 3ffe12003028ff01000000000000124e; router id 0x3ffe12003028ff01000000000000124e; What am I missing? -- St Aardvark the Carpeted http://www.saintaardvarkthecarpeted.com Because the plural of Anecdote is Myth.

I have no clue, but a random guess might be that you need the slash mask on the end. Maybe. HTH 'james -- James A. Crippen <james@unlambda.com> ,-./-.

Mm...just tried that, w/all three adress forms I listed, and kept getting "parse error". Dag. Thanks anyway though. -- St Aardvark the Carpeted http://www.saintaardvarkthecarpeted.com Because the plural of Anecdote is Myth.
Hello!
router id 3ffe:1200:3028:ff01:0000:0000:0000:124e; router id 3ffe12003028ff01000000000000124e; router id 0x3ffe12003028ff01000000000000124e;

Router ID is always an IPv4 address, not depending on whether your computer is a IPv4 or IPv6 router.
