Here are a couple of things for you: https://devcentral.f5.com/weblogs/macvittie/archive/2011/02/04/ipv4-ipv6-migration-coexist-gateway.aspx http://www.policyrouting.org/PolicyRoutingBook/ONLINE/CH09.web.html I don't have a specific HOWTO for you, but I have gleaned that there are *some* functions in iproute2 which are not (yet/fully) implemented for IPv6 in current versions of the package (search the net and some bug reports crop up from the past 12 months or so). You might want to peruse some of those hits. If anything else jumps out at me, I'll post it.
