+Tunnelbroker.net (IPv6)
+#######################
+
+This guides walks through the setup of https://www.tunnelbroker.net/ for an
+IPv6 Tunnel.
+
+Prerequisites
+=============
+
+- A public, routable IPv4 address. This does not necessarily need to be static,
+ but you will need to update the tunnel endpoint when/if your IP address
+ changes, which can be done with a script and a scheduled task.
+- Account at https://www.tunnelbroker.net/
+- Requested a "Regular Tunnel". You want to choose a location that is closest
+ to your physical location for the best response time.
+
+Setup initial tunnel
+====================
+
+Set up initial IPv6 tunnel. Replace the field below from the fields on the
+tunnel information page.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ conf
+ set interfaces tunnel tun0 address Client_IPv6_from_Tunnelbroker # This will be your VyOS install's public IPv6 address
+ set interfaces tunnel tun0 description 'HE.NET IPv6 Tunnel'
+ set interfaces tunnel tun0 encapsulation 'sit'
+ set interfaces tunnel tun0 local-ip Client_IPv4_from_Tunnelbroker # This is your public IP
+ set interfaces tunnel tun0 mtu '1472'
+ set interfaces tunnel tun0 multicast 'disable'
+ set interfaces tunnel tun0 remote-ip Server_IPv4_from_Tunnelbroker # This is the IP of the Tunnelbroker server
+ set protocols static interface-route6 ::/0 next-hop-interface tun0 # Tell all traffic to go over this tunnel
+ commit
+
+If your WAN connection is over PPPoE, you may need to set the MTU on the above
+tunnel lower than 1472.
+
+At this point you should be able to ping an IPv6 address, try pinging Google:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ ping6 -c2 2001:4860:4860::8888
+
+ 64 bytes from 2001:4860:4860::8888: icmp_seq=1 ttl=57 time=21.7 ms
+ 64 bytes from 2001:4860:4860::8888: icmp_seq=2 ttl=57 time=21.1 ms
+
+ --- 2001:4860:4860::8888 ping statistics ---
+ 2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1001ms
+ rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 21.193/21.459/21.726/0.304 ms
+
+Assuming the pings are successful, you need to add some DNS servers.
+Some options:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ set system name-server 2001:4860:4860::8888 # Google
+ set system name-server 2001:4860:4860::8844 # Google
+ set system name-server 2606:4700:4700::1111 # Cloudflare
+ set system name-server 2606:4700:4700::1001 # Cloudflare
+ commit
+
+You should now be able to ping something by IPv6 DNS name:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ # ping6 -c2 one.one.one.one
+ PING one.one.one.one(one.one.one.one) 56 data bytes
+ 64 bytes from one.one.one.one: icmp_seq=1 ttl=58 time=16.8 ms
+ 64 bytes from one.one.one.one: icmp_seq=2 ttl=58 time=17.4 ms
+
+ --- one.one.one.one ping statistics ---
+ 2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1001ms
+ rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 16.880/17.153/17.426/0.273 ms
+
+Assuming everything works, you can proceed to client configuration
+
+LAN Configuration
+=================
+
+At this point your VyOS install should have full IPv6, but now your LAN devices
+need access.
+
+With Tunnelbroker.net, you have two options:
+
+- Routed /64. This is the default assignment. In IPv6-land, it's good for a
+ single "LAN", and is somewhat equivalent to a /24.
+ Example: `2001:470:xxxx:xxxx::/64`
+- Routed /48. This is something you can request by clicking the "Assign /48"
+ link in the Tunnelbroker.net tunnel config. It allows you to have up to 65k
+ LANs. Example: `2001:470:xxxx::/48`
+
+Unlike IPv4, IPv6 is really not designed to be broken up smaller than /64. So
+if you ever want to have multiple LANs, VLANs, DMZ, etc, you'll want to ignore
+the assigned /64, and request the /48 and use that.
+
+Single LAN Setup
+================
+
+Single LAN setup where eth1 is your LAN interface. Use the /64 (all the xxxx
+should be replaced with the information from your `Routed /64` tunnel):
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '2001:470:xxxx:xxxx::1/64'
+ set service router-advert interface eth1 name-server '2001:4860:4860::8888'
+ set service router-advert interface eth1 name-server '2001:4860:4860::8844'
+ set service router-advert interface eth1 prefix 2001:470:xxxx:xxxx::/64
+
+Please note, 'autonomous-flag' and 'on-link-flag' are enabled by default, 'valid-lifetime' and 'preferred-lifetime' are set to default values of 30 days and 4 hours respectively.
+
+This accomplishes a few things:
+
+- Sets your LAN interface's IP address
+- Enables router advertisements. This is an IPv6 alternative for DHCP (though
+ DHCPv6 can still be used). With RAs, Your devices will automatically find the
+ information they need for routing and DNS.
+
+Multiple LAN/DMZ Setup
+======================
+
+In this, you use the `Routed /48` information. This allows you to assign a
+different /64 to every interface, LAN, or even device. Or you could break your
+network into smaller chunks like /56 or /60.
+
+The format of these addresses:
+
+- `2001:470:xxxx::/48`: The whole subnet. xxxx should come from Tunnelbroker.
+- `2001:470:xxxx:1::/64`: A subnet suitable for a LAN
+- `2001:470:xxxx:2::/64`: Another subnet
+- `2001:470:xxxx:ffff:/64`: The last usable /64 subnet.
+
+In the above examples, 1,2,ffff are all chosen by you. You can use 1-ffff
+(1-65535).
+
+So, when your LAN is eth1, your DMZ is eth2, your cameras live on eth3, etc:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '2001:470:xxxx:1::1/64'
+ set service router-advert interface eth1 name-server '2001:4860:4860::8888'
+ set service router-advert interface eth1 name-server '2001:4860:4860::8844'
+ set service router-advert interface eth1 prefix 2001:470:xxxx:1::/64
+
+ set interfaces ethernet eth2 address '2001:470:xxxx:2::1/64'
+ set service router-advert interface eth2 name-server '2001:4860:4860::8888'
+ set service router-advert interface eth2 name-server '2001:4860:4860::8844'
+ set service router-advert interface eth2 prefix 2001:470:xxxx:2::/64
+
+ set interfaces ethernet eth3 address '2001:470:xxxx:3::1/64'
+ set service router-advert interface eth3 name-server '2001:4860:4860::8888'
+ set service router-advert interface eth3 name-server '2001:4860:4860::8844'
+ set service router-advert interface eth3 prefix 2001:470:xxxx:3::/64
+
+Please note, 'autonomous-flag' and 'on-link-flag' are enabled by default, 'valid-lifetime' and 'preferred-lifetime' are set to default values of 30 days and 4 hours respectively.
+
+Firewall
+========
+
+Finally, don't forget the :ref:`firewall`. The usage is identical, except for
+instead of `set firewall name NAME`, you would use `set firewall ipv6-name
+NAME`.
+
+Similarly, to attach the firewall, you would use `set interfaces ethernet eth0
+firewall in ipv6-name` or `set zone-policy zone LOCAL from WAN firewall
+ipv6-name`.
