Hi,
I have read the handbook and spent hours on the configuration of ipv6
on laptop, but still can't get it done.
The local network administrator only suggest the following steps to
setup ipv6 on windows xp and it works fine on that platform. I just
don't know to get it work on FreeBSD, would anyone guide me in detail
so I can also help the people aroud me.
Many thanks!

// The following steps make ipv6 works fine on windows xp
ipv6 install
netsh > interface ipv6 isatap set router 202.112.95.129
netsh >interface ipv6 add route ::/0 2 2001:da8:207:1:0:5efe:202.112.95.129
