Freenet6 Project

Now we have to configure our tunnel with Freenet6 to use IPv6 over IPv4 In the web page of this project (http://www.freenet6.net) we can read:

"Freenet6's TSP is a new initiative launched by Viagénie, a private company 
in Canada involved in IPv6 since 1996, to facilitate a faster deployment of 
an Internet IPv6.  Internet is world-wide deployed over IPv4, therefore this 
project has the main goal of deploying IPv6 at a larger scale by using 
configured tunnels. 
 Configured tunnel is a transitional method standardized by the IETF to use 
IPv6 in coexistence with IPv4 by encapsulating IPv6 packets over IPv4. Any 
host already connected to Internet with IPv4 and having an IPv6 stack could 
establish link to Internet IPv6."

If our ISP doesn't provide us with IPv6, we have to use a "third party provider", like Freenet6 that allow to create configured tunnels to use IPv6 over IPv4.
