.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fB6to4relay\fR command is used to configure 6to4 relay router
communication. Relay router communication support is enabled by setting the
value of a variable that stores an IPv4 address within the \fBtun\fR module.
This variable is global to all tunnels and defines the policy for communication
with relay routers. By default, the address is set to \fBINADDR_ANY\fR
(\fB0.0.0.0\fR), and the kernel interprets the value to indicate that support
for relay router communication is disabled. Otherwise, support is enabled, and
the specified address is used as the IPv4 destination address when packets
destined for native IPv6 (non-6to4) hosts are sent through the 6to4 tunnel
interface. The \fB6to4relay\fR command uses a project private ioctl to set the
variable.
.sp
.LP
\fB6to4relay\fR used without any options outputs the current, in-kernel,
configuration status. Use the \fB-a\fR option to send packets to a specific
relay router's \fBunicast\fR address instead of the default \fBanycast\fR
address. The address specified with the \fB-a\fR option does not specify the
policy for receiving traffic from relay routers. The source relay router on a
received packet is non-deterministic, since a different relay router may be
chosen for each sending native IPv6 end-point.
.sp
.LP
Configuration changes made by using the \fB6to4relay\fR are not persistent
across reboot. The changes will persist in the kernel only until you take the
tunnel down
.SH OPTIONS
.sp
.LP
The \fB6to4relay\fR command supports the following options:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fB-a\fR \fIaddr\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 11n
Use the specified address, \fIaddr\fR.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fB-e\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 11n
Enable support for relay router. Use \fB-a\fR \fIaddr\fR if it is specified.
Otherwise, use the default \fBanycast\fR address, 192.88.99.1.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fB-d\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 11n
Disable support for the relay router.

.SH OPERANDS
.sp
.LP
The following operands are supported:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIaddr\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 8n
A specific relay router's unicast address. \fIaddr\fR must be specified as a
dotted decimal representation of an IPv4 address. Otherwise, an error will
occur, and the command will fail.
