6to4 Softwires

Configuring a 6to4 Provider-Managed Tunnel

When configuring a 6to4 provider-managed tunnel (PMT), replace the Anycast destination with the address of a managed relay in the provider network.

6to4 tunnels are supported on Multiservices 100, 400, and 500 PICs on M Series routers, and on MX Series routers equipped with Multiservices DPCs. 6to4 tunnels are not supported on MX Series routers with MS-MPCs or MS-MICs.

To configure a 6to4 PMT:

  1. Configure the ingress interface for 6to4 traffic. Include the name of the service set that identifies the rules for input and output service on this interface.

    For example:

  2. Configure the egress interface.

    For example:

  3. Configure the service interface that contains the rules for processing incoming traffic. Include a syslog option and associate a logical unit.

    For example:

  4. Configure the softwire concentrator and softwire rule for 6to4. In the Junos OS, 6to4 PMT configuration uses the same options as 6rd.

    For example:

  5. Define the softwire rule that will process traffic on the ingress interface.

    For example:

  6. Define a stateful firewall rule that will accept all incoming traffic on the ingress interface.

    For example:

  7. Define the NAT pool to be used for IPv6 NAT translation. This pool supports translation of the Anycast 6to4 relay addresses to addresses at the provider-managed relay.

    For example:

  8. Define the NAT rule for translation.

    For example:

  9. Define the service set that specifies the softwire rule and NAT rule.

    For example:
