gif tunnel:

ifconfig gif0 inet6 2a02:898:216:3::2 2a02:898:216:3::1 prefixlen 128

and viceversa on th eother end.

So gif tunnel with default options. With that it showed an an mtu of
1280 in ifconfig so I assumed that would be the max. I have a
200 Mb/s cable connection. Downloading IPv4 I reach that. With IPV6
often it would be 10% of that. Plus it would only work reliably if the
hosts in my net use an mtu of 1280 (manually or via rad).

I now have a ipsec tunnel and that does 55 Mb/s (APU2 on both
ends) without any need for config on the hosts in my local net.

Can you elaborate on what gif and slow meant? Also, you should be able to use 
gif with whatever MTU you want, even 1500 on the gif interface and fragments 
over the internet. You could also try gre, but I doubt it would be different to 
gif in terms of performance and support for MTU/fragmentation.

If you want ipsec and routes, you would still use tunnel and get IPsec to 
protect it. Or you could trick someone into making something like Cisco's vti a 
thing in OpenBSD.

Because that would drop the packets in the forwarding path before hitting
the ipsec code. At least I thought this was the case. If that works even
better :)

You may need to use pf to block the routed IPv6 traffic on the loopback
or you may end up with a routing loop when the IPsec flow is not present.
You can use a 2nd loopback or maybe even a vether(4) and use the link
local address as the default gateway then dropping this traffic should be
trivial.

I remember having to do exactly this for a similar scenario long time
ago to bring
ipv6 home over a v4-only setup.

IPSec flows steal the traffic away before it is being sent out. You still
need routes in place to get to this point though. In your case adding a
dummy default route should work. Never tried but I think you should be
able to use the loopback for this and add a route like 'route add -inet6

ipv6 via ipsec tunnel

2019-03-14 Thread Otto Moerbeek
Hi,

So i have a little IPv6 problem. 

I have a machine in colocation that has IPv6. I have my home cable
modem connection that does not have it.

So I thought: I make my own tunnel. First I tried gif(4), that worked,
but only after some fighting with mtu settings on all hosts on my home
net via rad.  Performance was kinda bad. So I'm looking for an
alternative. I thougt: IPSEC should be able to do this.

I have a flow from my locally created IPv6 net to any and vice versa.
THe flow itself works. 

There I ran into the trouble that you cannot specify a default
gateway, since my remote gw (the host in colo) it is not reachable
according to route(8).

How does one solve the default route problem?  I never really
understood how routing works in the presense of IPSEC flows.
