AICCU not functioning on Win2k behind NAT

Installed IPv6, registered and logged in OK, got heartbeat tunnel approved, ran AICCU - all fine, except I can't ping6 anything remote, including the far end of the tunnel! Isn't AICCU supposed to configure this correctly when I hit "Enable"? Either the "10 Easy steps" FAQ entry has something critical missing, or AICCU isn't working properly...

Very simple reason: You don't have a AYIYA tunnel. Proto-41 does not penetrate all NAT's, unless you configure them.

I've got the same problem. The client sends heartbeats to the pop, but in the tunnel-info is an outdated timestamp for "Last Dead" (if this is for the last heartbeat). I'm able to ping my IPv6: Pinging 2001:6f8:900:3cd::2 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 2001:6f8:900:3cd::2: bytes=32 time<1ms Reply from 2001:6f8:900:3cd::2: bytes=32 time<1ms Reply from 2001:6f8:900:3cd::2: bytes=32 time<1ms Reply from 2001:6f8:900:3cd::2: bytes=32 time<1ms But not the PoP IPv6: Pinging 2001:6f8:900:3cd::1 with 32 bytes of data: Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. I'm using deham01.sixxs.net and the infopage for that PoP says that AYIYA is supported.

Just because the POP supports AYIYA doesn't mean you can use it with a heartbeat tunnel (which is the tunnel type I assume you have). You have to contact sixxs staff to request an AYIYA tunnel. Greets Thorsten

Oh, didn't know that :) How/where do I have to contact the SixXS staff? btw: yes, it's a heartbeat tunnel

Direct your eyes a bit up on the page, you shoud find a link that has "Contact" written on it, and that could be the link you search ;-) Thorsten P.S.: AFAIK AYIYA tunnels are only given out to beta testers (that was written in a news item some time ago, but I might be wrong)
