Build Your Own IPv6 Tunnel Broker Service

Like me I'm sure you stay up late at night thinking about IPv6. Lately I've been wondering about the software and hardware that runs IPv6 Tunnel Brokering services. I've never used a tunnel broker before as I've always opted for IPv6 6to4.

Turns out the software for a tunnel broker is OpenVPN. In fact a fellow from Denmark named Christian Strauf wrote detailed instructions and placed them on the web for all to see. Thanks, Christian!

I'd consider becoming a tunnel broker from my oodles of bandwidth IPv6 network down in Wilson but with 6to4 being so easy to set up and use I'm not sure I see the point.
