Configuration Guide - IP Service
address of a manual IPv6 over IPv4 tunnel on the same device must be unique. A manual IPv6
over IPv4 tunnel acts as a permanent link that crosses an IPv4 network and connects two IPv6
networks. Border devices can communicate with each other securely and regularly through
manual IPv6 over IPv4 tunnels.
Context
Note the following when configuring an IPv6 over IPv4 manual tunnel:

Step 2 Run:
interface tunnel interface-number
The tunnel interface is created.
Step 3 Run:
tunnel-protocol ipv6-ipv4
The tunnel is specified be an IPv6 over IPv4 manual tunnel.
Step 4 Run:
source { ip-address | interface-type interface-number }
The source address or source interface of the tunnel is specified.
Step 5 Run:
destination dest-ip-address
The destination address of the tunnel is specified.
Step 6 Run:
ipv6 enable
IPv6 is enabled on the interface.
Step 7 Run:
ipv6 address { ipv6-address prefix-length | ipv6-address/prefix-length }

Before configuring other parameters of an IPv6 tunnel, you must create a tunnel interface.
When the specified source interface of the tunnel is a physical interface, it is recommended
to set the tunnel ID to be the same as the number of the physical interface.
You need to conduct the following configurations on the devices on both the ends of the
tunnel. During the configuration, note that the source address of the local tunnel end is the
destination address set for the remote tunnel end; the destination address of the local tunnel
end is the source address set for the remote tunnel end.
NOTE
The destination address of the tunnel can be the address of a physical interface or the address of a loopback
interface.
