1 SixXS AICCU: Automatic IPv6 Connectivity Configuration Utility
2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3 AICCU makes it very easy for anybody to get IPv6 connectivity
4 everywhere they want. It uses the TIC (Tunnel Information & Control)
5 protocol to request the information needed to setup a tunnel through
6 which the connectivity is created.
8 AICCU supports the following tunneling protocols:
9 - 6in4 static (RFC 2893)
10 - 6in4 heartbeat (RFC 2893 + draft-massar-v6ops-heartbeat)
11 - AYIYA (draft-massar-v6ops-ayiya)
13 As AYIYA even works from behind NAT's, thus unless there is a very
14 restrictive firewall in place, anybody should be able to get IPv6
15 connectivity without problems and everywhere they want.
17 WARNING: never run AICCU from DaemonTools or a similar automated
18 'restart' tool/script. When AICCU does not start, it has a reason
19 not to start which it gives on either the stdout or in the (sys)log
20 file. The TIC server *will* automatically disable accounts which
21 are detected to run in this mode.
