Interesting... it DOES work if I leave the gateway field blank (-). My connection still seems to work, and the results of "ip -6 rule ls" show that my route_rules are being entered... And yet my pings to the sit1 subnet are failing while pings to the sit2 subnet are working fine. So it appears I still have not made any progress.

I applied the patch to Providers.pm that you gave, and I tried to use the Server IPv6 Address provided by HE as the gateway in the providers file, but I still getting the same failure when I try to enable the providers entries. It should be noted that I don't think I'm actually using shorewall-perl on my setup.

Here's my providers file as it sits now:
ISP1 3 - main sit1 2001:470:1f04:262::1 track eth1,eth2,eth3,eth5 ISP2 4 - main sit2 2001:470:c:316::1 track eth1,eth2,eth3,eth5

And here's the error I get when I try to restart shorewall6:
21:39:59 Adding Providers...
RTNETLINK answers: No route to host
ERROR: Command "ip -6 route add default via 2001:470:1f04:262::1 src 2001:470:8388::1 dev sit1 table 3" Failed

So... any thoughts as to what I'm doing wrong at this point?

I'm trying to figure out here... did you accidentally copy your providers example under the route_rules as well, or is your configuration just that vastly different from what I have here? I'm running shorewall 4.4.6, it appears there are no further updates in my distro.

Which distro -- Gentoo?

I'm trying to dig up more info on the route_rules file, beyond the man page which doesn't give any examples to work from, and hopefully can do some testing with that later this evening.

Also, the IPv6 addresses you specified lead me to believe that you may have both addresses coming from the same HE server. In my case, because I am connected under two different providers, my tunnels are coming from two different servers (fmt2 and lax1). This is the particular scenario that they added filtering against yesterday. If both of your test connections are coming from the same source, there is no filtering against crossovers between those, so it wouldn't be a valid test.

I'm not getting any crosstalk - I've verified that.
