IPv6 addr of machine-1 is 3ff3:1234::1 IPv6 addr of machine-2 is 3ff3:1234::2 My LAN is based on IPv4. To make these IPv6-hosts to communicate on the LAN, what configuration do i need to make ??? I tried connecting only these two machines using a cross cable and sending IPv6 packets. But it failed. Is it correct to do so ??? thanx in advance. -San ------------------------------------------------------
