Tunnel does not route packets anymore ![[nl]](/s/countries/nl.gif) Shadow Hawkins on Wednesday, 14 September 2011 11:50:34 
Dear Sirs,
discovered this morning that I cannot ping6 anymore the Sixxs ipv6 far end anymore. This worked yesterday. 
Find below the troubleshooting I am doing on the cisco:
Tunnel Config:
interface Tunnel79278
 description 6in4 tunnel to SixXS
 no ip address
 ip mtu 1280
 ip tcp adjust-mss 1420
 ipv6 address 2001:1AF8:FE00:2DD::2/64
 ipv6 enable
 tunnel source GigabitEthernet1/1
 tunnel destination 94.75.219.73
 tunnel mode ipv6ip
end
Switch#show int Tunnel79278
Tunnel79278 is up, line protocol is up
  Hardware is Tunnel

Tunnel does not route packets anymore 
You are behind some kind of NAT:
 Tunnel source 172.30.120.150 (GigabitEthernet1/1), destination 94.75.219.73That won't work properly most of the time.

Hi Jerroen,
thanks for the feedback. 
You are very right, NAT is involved. However, I would not understand why NAT would disrupt a Tunnel, as normally the original IP is not put into the payload for verifications.
On the other hand, I presume all PC's etc connecting via SIXXs are as well behind a DSL router with NAT.
And it worked already. Is there no way to get it running via NAT ?
Kind Regards

Tunnel does not route packets anymore You are very right, NAT is involved. However, I would not understand why NAT would disrupt a Tunnel, as normally the original IP is not put into the payload for verifications.It does not work because your NAT does not know where to send packets for this magical protocol 41 to. Most NATs solely support TCP and UDP and nothing else. On the other hand, I presume all PC's etc connecting via SIXXs are as well behind a DSL router with NAT.For those we have the AYIYA protocol. And it worked already. Is there no way to get it running via NAT ?Teach your NAT to forward all unknown packets to the IP that has the tunnel endpoint. This typically is called DMZ mode.
See the FAQ and forums for more details.
