native ?
It advertises (with RFC 2461) a native global IPv6 prefix on the LAN
bridge and routes over either a 6to4 or a manual tunnel (as
appropriate, or when configured). The default configuration is 6to4
tunneling. Alas, it doesn't properly support acquiring native IPv6
service from an ISP with DHCP6 prefix delegation (over either PPPoE
or ethernet).
He means it doesn't block Teredo (yet). <http://tools.ietf.org/html/
draft-ietf-v6ops-cpe-simple-security/> currently suggests that Teredo
should be blocked unconditionally when a native IPv6 prefix is
advertised, though I expect there to be some debate over that before
last call.
