Okay,<BR>
<BR>
I am already working on that scenario.<BR>
<BR>
I use radvd only for router (gateway) advertisement. I set flags in radvd so that no stateless configuration is done on the hosts.<BR>
Hosts need to use dhcpv6 for ipv6 configuration. dhcp provides hosts with the unique local addresses.<BR>
<BR>
This prevents hosts to communicate beyond the FC00::/7 to the outside world.<BR>
<BR>
But this setup seems pretty useless since no NAT/PAT is available (yet) in ipv6. Hosts need real global (2000::/3) addresses to accomplish that.<BR>
<BR>
I have a tun6to4 connection to the internet.<BR>
<BR>
I could provide them with addresses by using a /64 subnet from the 2002::/16 subnet that is provided to me through the tun6to4 connection but then I keep breaking my mind about how addresses of these hosts would have to be registered in the local dns.<BR>
<BR>
From what I know, it is not allowed to use the tun6to4 addresses to be registered in global dns.<BR>
<BR>
So, I wonder how this should be done in the real ipv6 world. (I think nat/pat is not valid anymore in ipv6).<BR>
<BR>

This seems to work for the most part.<BR>

Site local addresses are deprecated and are no more used. Instead we use Unique Local addresses,FC00::/7 (ULA) to assign addresses to the LAN side hosts.

Regd the RDNSS option although radvd has support for that but LAN side host doesn't support this option . So actually you cannot use this option for deployment. So As of now , until all the hosts support this RDNSS, better option would be RADVD + Stateless DHCPv6 server

Okay, thank you again. That seems pretty straight forward :-)<BR>
<BR>
One thing I still wonder about:<BR>
<BR>
Is everybody that uses ipv6 just assigning global addresses to all the hosts in their lan?<BR>
<BR>
Or are there also people that prefer to assign site global addresses to their hosts only?<BR>
What would be the benefit of that? You can't "nat" them to the outside world can you?<BR>
