Tunnel does not route packets anymore

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 Description: 6in4 tunnel to SixXS MTU 17920 bytes, BW 100 Kbit, DLY 50000 usec, reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255 Encapsulation TUNNEL, loopback not set Keepalive not set Tunnel source 172.30.120.150 (GigabitEthernet1/1), destination 94.75.219.73 Tunnel protocol/transport IPv6/IP Tunnel TTL 255 Tunnel transport MTU 1480 bytes Last input never, output 00:00:49, output hang never Last clearing of "show interface" counters never Input queue: 0/75/0/0 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 0 Queueing strategy: fifo Output queue: 0/0 (size/max) 5 minute input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec 5 minute output rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec 0 packets input, 0 bytes, 0 no buffer Received 0 broadcasts (0 IP multicasts) 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles 0 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored, 0 abort 140 packets output, 15318 bytes, 0 underruns 0 output errors, 0 collisions, 0 interface resets 0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out Switch#ping 2001:1AF8:FE00:2DD::1 Type escape sequence to abort.

You are behind some kind of NAT:
Tunnel source 172.30.120.150 (GigabitEthernet1/1), destination 94.75.219.73
That 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 W Herler

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.

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.
