Long ago when I was using XP as a IPv6 router I had these lines in a batchfile, ipv6-init.cmd that I ran at boot: ipv6 reset ipv6 rcf ipv6 ncf ipv6 rtu ::/0 2/::193.113.58.80 ipv6 adu 2/2001:618:400::d9d7:eb8 ipv6 rtu 2001:618:464::/48 4 pub life 86400 ipv6 adu 4/2001:618:464::1 ipv6 ifc 2 forw ipv6 ifc 3 forw ipv6 ifc 4 forw adv

Acctually, i dont need any help anymore... god bless my not-completed ccna training... The problem was as easy as that ntsh didnt register SixXS as the interface name, so i had to use show interface to list interfaces, and then put the index-number for the tunnel where sixxs should be according to the script. netsh interface ipv6>show interface Idx Måt MTU Tillstånd Namn --- --- ----- ------------ ----- 7 0 1280 Ansluten Configured Tunnel Interface 7 5 0 1500 Frånkopplad Anslutning till lokalt nätverk 2 4 0 1500 Ansluten Anslutning till lokalt nätverk 3 0 1280 Ansluten Pseudogränssnitt för 6to4-tunnel 2 0 1280 Ansluten Automatiskt pseudogränssnitt för tunnel 1 0 1500 Ansluten Loopback netsh interface ipv6>add address 7 ********** Ok. But thanks anyway. Regards, Aleksander Wistrand

You might want to look in the FAQ which seperatly creates all of this. But the easiest way would be to just run the Heartbeat (or soon AICCU) tool which can also configure static tunnels.

You should not use 'ipv6.exe' with Windows XP, use "netsh interface ipv6" as is mentioned in the FAQ.
ipv6 rtu 2001:618:464::/48 4 pub life 86400
That would configure a /48 on a link, that is wrong that should be a /64.
