ISATAP (Intrasite Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol)

ISATAP provide unicast IPv6 connectivity between IPv6/IPv4 hosts on an IPv4 intranet, which are also known as ISATAP hosts.

1

Work at router computer

disable IPv6 forwarding and advertising

netsh interface ipv6 set interface "192.168.1.1" forwarding=disabled advertise=disabled

netsh interface ipv6 set interface "192.168.11.7" forwarding=disabled advertise=disabled

2

Restart all the client computers

 

All the IPV6 Global Addresses are gone.

Work on Windows 2008 router

netsh interface isatap set state enabled

3

netsh interface isatap set router 192.168.1.1
netsh interface isatap set router 192.168.11.7

Netsh interface ipv6 show interface

4

netsh interface ipv6 set interface 12 forwarding=enabled advertise=enabled
netsh interface ipv6 add route 2001:0:0:1::/64 12 publish=yes

netsh interface ipv6 set interface 15 forwarding=enabled advertise=enabled
netsh interface ipv6 add route 2001:0:0:2::/64 15 publish=yes

For computers at 192.168.11.0/24 subnet,

netsh interface isatap set state enabled

HOSTS file
192.168.11.7   isatap

For computers at 192.168.1.0/24 subnet,

netsh interface isatap set state enabled

Add a line to the HOSTS file

192.168.1.1  isatap

Restart all host computers

Vista machine has the IPV6 global address assigned to ISATAP interface.7

2003 machine has the IPv6 global address assigned to ISATAP interface.

6

From Vista machine to ping the 2003 machine:

ping 2001::2:0:5efe:192.168.11.120  -- success

From 2003 machine to ping Vista machine

ping 2001::1:0:5efe:192.168.1.3  --success


6to4 tunnels IPv6 traffic over IPv4 traffic through 6to4 router. 6to4 is intended for Internet, whereas ISATAP is for intranet.
