Re: Configuring os X server as IPv6 router



Partial success with these commands.

The correct v6 addresses are distributed to client systems on my
network. however the routing seems to be broken.

I'm able to ping6 the router and both ends of my tunnel but not hosts
on the other side of the tunnel. Additionally after configuring the
router system this way it's unable to reach remote hosts on the far
side of the tunnel.

Do I need to configure some manual routes?
