Internode to support IPv6 tunneling (and more)

At About Internode and IPv6, Internode announces that their internal network is supporting IPv6, and that they have IPv6 connectivity to the rest of the IPv6 world.

If you want to use their Tunnel Broker service on FreeBSD (i.e. have an IPv6-over-IPv4 tunnel towards their IPv6 gateway), then use the net/freenet6 port. Make sure you are using version 5.1_x.

The required configuration changes in /usr/local/etc/gw6c.conf are:

userid=edwing
passwd=foobar
server=sixgw.internode.on.net
auth_method=any

Besides being a tunnel broker they also support a native IPv6 connection if you have an ethernet- or fibre link with them.
