Hardware - does anyone want to recommend an ADSL router with IPv6 support? We've been using Zyxel for the last five years, and I've been looking at Zyxels 662, but I've grown a little wary of Zyxel (support in particular). A new router would require solid IPv6 support plus SNMP and syslog ditto.
afaicr,was the latest Fritz-router 7270 (both annex-A and annex-B) capable of doing ipv6 (download firmware from fritz)
I've been researching this quite a bit today, and have yet to find a manufacturer which explicitly lists IPv6 support. During some more googling, I came across a suggestion of simply running the ADSL router in bridge mode, and leaving all the IP handling to the next system, i.e. a firewall/gateway box. This sounds quite enticing, although it would mean making the firewall/gateway also do the ADSL authentication/login etc. I guess it would be kind of similar to the old days with pppd and all that. Does anyone have any practical experience with running an ADSL router in bridge mode? /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (3.9°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
