use of tunneled ipv6 in dedi for vps

hi everybody...
just got a question.
can you use he/tunnelbroker or other related services on your dedi to make vps's out of them for selling...
will it be worth without a native ipv6?
what will be the difference in the vps made from a dedi having a tunneled ipv6 and the one having a native ipv6?
Comments
You can. Here's some good info: http://www.tunnelbroker.net/forums/index.php?topic=152.0
It really depends. I mean I had set it up for Catalyst in Dallas and the added latency was too low to worry about, something like 5ms I think since the tunnel was nearby.
The real difference is just routing. You can't do much about something like an HE tunnel running HE routes, but you'll expect more from your native ipv4 and even your native ipv6.
dear @jarland, i have seen you almost very positively active on this forum
thanks
@jarland, its a nice tutorial that you recomended, but what about automation, if i add the ipblock to the solusvm, will it add ipv6 automatically to the vps's thus being created...
It will. I tried it with solusvm and it took off without a problem.
@jarland, just one more question, what to do inside tunelbroker at these places...
and
i am asking you since i have no idea about these..
or if you can guide me to some nice writeup on these
Ah good questions. Regular tunnel is what you want. As for rDNS delegation, I won't lie...goes right over my head
rDNS setup is easy if it doesn't bother you to do it manually. I use freedns.afraid.org nameservers with my IPv6 tunnel and then set up rDNS from afraid.org control panel.
thanks for your support
will again be back once i test it
what if i have my own dns server with bind, presently serving ipv4 deligation/requests for rdns, can it serve for ipv6 as well
now i am thinking of switching to powerdns instead of bind, will it do?
Yes of course.

thanks a million @Spirit
I've created an IPv6 only vps from my Dedibox SC Gen2 with tunelled IPv6 from HE, while for the IPv4 is NATed from the dedi IPv4. We just need to use the routed /64 or /48 from HE.
As for the rDNS of IPv6, set delegation to HE NS. I'm running 4 OpenVZ with IPv6 only at my Dedibox now.
@ErawanArifNugroho
can you explain me in detail how to do this?
i am unable to understand...
@agentmishra I've created a tutorial for this, but it's in Indonesian language, but most part were still in English, so maybe you can try it here
Or some start is, I'm using Proxmox ( Debian 6) so this is the example of my /etc/network/interfaces
auto he-ipv6 iface he-ipv6 inet6 v4tunnel endpoint 216.66.84.42 address 2001:470:ffff:: -- Client IPv6 from Tunnelbroker netmask 64 up /sbin/ip -6 route add default dev he-ipv6 # I'm using the default routed /64 from Tunnelbroker up /sbin/ip -6 addr add 2001:470:aa::/64 dev vmbr0 # This would be the IPv6 for the container that we want to be available for public, using the routed /64 or /48 from Tunnelbroker post-up ip -6 neigh add proxy 2001:470:aa::100 dev vmbr0 post-up ip -6 neigh add proxy 2001:470:aa::101 dev vmbr0 post-up ip -6 neigh add proxy 2001:470:aa::102 dev vmbr0 post-up ip -6 neigh add proxy 2001:470:aa::103 dev vmbr0@ErawanArifNugroho
is there a way for us to automate the NATing of ipv4 and also ipv6 tunnel in solusvm?
For automate the NATing, I don't tried yet, maybe with some bash script, it can be done, but I'm not a programmer
For theIPv6, as far as I know, we just need to set the IPv6 to the container, and add the proxy for it. This is just like lowendspirit
