IPv6 works only after ping to routing box
- by Ficik
Situation:
There is ipv4 only router in network and every computer is connected to it (wifi or cable).
Server with ipv4 and ipv6 is connected to this router as well. Server has configured tunnelbrokers 6to4 tunnel and radvd. Clients in network has right prefix and can ping each other. But they can't ping to internet until they ping Server (the one with tunnel).
I found somewhere that it's icmp problem, but I couldn't find solution.
Is it problem that there is ipv4 only router?
server and client runs linux
router runs dd-wrt without ipv6 support :(
