Tom: 

charter.com IPv6 link 

Is their web site that gives the information I can call them to confirm. It 
will take some time. 

Point me to the tools as I am new to IPv6 and will try them.

A couple of things: 

a) That script was written 6 years ago before the distributions has much 
support for IPv6. I certainly wouldn't use it today and will remove 
mention to it as soon as I have a moment. You really should be using 
your distribution's configuration tools to configure the tunnel. 

b) You need to give some thought to how you are going to use the /32. 
Your current configuration is totally unusable (the same /32 is defined 
on eth0 and eth1). Unless the two interfaces connect to the same 
network, you must subnet such that the networks on eth0 and eth1 are 
disjoint. 



And I very much doubt that you have a /32. You should confirm what they 
are delegating to you. It is probably on the order of a /60 or less. A 
/32 is 4 billion /64s. There are only 4 billion IPv4 addresses.. 

And each /64 has (4 billion) **2 IPv6 addresses. They are made that

large for autoconfiguration. When using autoconfiguration (radvd), the 
low order 64-bits of the IPv6 address are autoconfigured using EUI-64 
addressing.
