[Xorp-users] IPv6 Router Advertisements?

Hi,

I am running XORP version 1.4 on Debian Linux/unstable.I am trying to  
configure XORP to be an IPv4 multicast router on the end of a tunnel  
to a Cisco and an IPv6 Unicast & Multicast router on the end of  
another tunnel to a Cisco.

To complicate matters, my IPv4 hosts are part of a large (/22)  
subnet. So I have my box setup as an Ethernet Bridge and using  
ebtables to prevent the multicast and IPv6 traffic leaking into the  
rest of the subnet. I wish it didn't have to be this way but my  
University's network staff won't give me my own subnet.

Has anyone else had any success with such a setup?


Does XORP support IPv6 Router Advertisements? I can't see any mention  
of it in the manual, but I thought it would be something that would  
be built-in. Do I have to use radvd instead?
