 This document explains how to bring IPv6 Internet connectivity to a lab platform using tunnels. This scenario is useful whenever IPv6 is not enabled on the Internet access of your Lab. This document explains how to bring IPv6 Internet connectivity to a lab platform using tunnels.

 Figure 2 illustrates a deployment example of the 6in4 tunnel. In this example, the Tunnel End-Point (TEP) is a specific device that has IPv4 Internet connectivity on interface e1. The TEP adds and removes the encapsulating IPv4 headers. Therefore, a specific configuration should be applied on this device. Moreover, you can choose this device to be the default gateway for your lab in a way that all ongoing IPv6 trafic benefits from the tunnelling mechanism. Figure 2 illustrates a deployment example of the 6in4 tunnel.

 Now, you can verify the configuration of your interface ''ip -6 addr show dev he-ipv6'' on the TEP and test if the IPv6 connectivity is working ''ping6 ipv6.google.com''. Now, you can verify the configuration of your interface ''ip -6 addr show dev he-ipv6'' on the TEP and test if the IPv6 connectivity is working ''ping6 ipv6.google.com''.
