IPv6 over PPPoE

General questions
1

Hello,

I have vDSL line from BT in the UK and I have a running IPv4 session just fine and can ping out to google etc.

My ISP also offers native IPv6 over PPPoE. When I connect i get this in the log files:

rcvd [proto=0x8057] 01 00 00 0e 01 0a 02 03 97 ff fe 19 40 00
Unsupported protocol ‘IPv6 Control Protovol’ (0x8057) received’
sent [LCP ProtRej id=0x7 80 57 01 00 00 0e 01 0a 02 03 97 ff fe 19 40 00]

Is IPv6 support over PPPoE? Have I missed something, if so any clues would be good. I dont see any real options under the poppe to support this.

Cheers
Phil

Hi tpau86,

do you found the solution for this problem? I also have a vDSL Line and only get the IPv4 Address. I searched the Internet, but the most solutions are DHCP with IPv6.

Been about two years from the post, has there been any development for PPPoE IPv6 or is it time to move routers? BT, Zen to name a few are now in IPv6 xDSL deployment…
