IPv6

[Michael Lowry]

I've been running IPv6 for about 6 months now.  I'm using a Scientific Linux box as a router and doing a tunnel to Hurricane Electric (DOCSIS 2 modem).  Part of the reason for doing this was I was studying for CCNP at the time and there was some IPv6 on the test.  

I've configured DHCPv6 and SLAAC on the router.  Added some AAAA records to local DNS also.

My biggest problem now is finding an access point that supports IPv6.  I ended up picking up a Cisco small business AP (WAP321).  Mostly ok, but having an issue with the source address.  Have a wireshark capture showing the AP sending packets to the RADIUS server with a source address of ::1.  It's also tried using the link-local address to get to the RADIUS server, but that didn't work so well either since it's on another network.  If I reboot it will eventually use the SLAAC address, or the manually configured address.
