Please send your XORP configuration and the Click version you are
using.

It appears that you are trying to use Click with IPv6.
The default Click config generator
(xorp/fea/xorp_fea_click_config_generator) has IPv6 disabled by
default. To enable it, edit that file and change "enable_ipv6 = 0"
to "enable_ipv6 = 1".

If you don't need IPv6, then I think you can just ignore those
IPv6-related error messages.

Pavlin
