you can also use the 6to4 method which uses a generic encapsulation method and routes to the nearest 6to4 router via ipv4 anycast. Pipenetworks and a few other AU ISPs run these gateways.

Are you sure this is still the case?

positive. I've used it on a colo server in AU until October or so. The PIPE gateway was very reliable.

When I checked (years ago now), there were no gateways in Australia, and I got the distinct impression 6to4 was considered an obsolete/bad idea so this wasn't going to change.

It's been muted to be obsolete, but it still works fine. I find it a better solution than user land stuff
