Follow these steps to configure an IPv4 over IPv6 tunnel: 

Enter system view 

— 

Enable IPv6 

ipv6

By default, the IPv6 packet 
forwarding function is disabled. 

Enter tunnel interface view  interface tunnel number

Configure an IPv4 address 
for the tunnel interface 

ip address ip-address { mask 
| mask-length } [ sub ] 

Required 

By default, no IPv4 address is 
configured for the tunnel interface. 

Specify the IPv4 over IPv6 
tunnel mode 

tunnel-protocol ipv4-ipv6

IPv4 tunnel. The same tunnel mode 
should be configured at both ends of 
the tunnel. Otherwise, packet 
delivery will fail. 

Configure the source 
address or interface for the 
tunnel interface 

source { ipv6-address | 
interface-type 
interface-number } 

Required 

By default, no source address or 
interface is configured for the tunnel.

Configure the destination
