6in4 Tunnel via Hurricane Electric

My ISP doesn't provide IPv6 services, and I wanted to leverage the Hurricane Electric IPv6 Tunnel Broker. Is there GRE tunnel configuration that can support this?

    Hi @DavidM2357 it looks like that broker service acts independently of the firewall -- I don't see any reason you wouldn't be able to use that if you wanted to. The firebox doesn't provide any IPv6 over IPv4 services natively.

    But the tunnel broker wants a GRE tunnel, and I only see instructions for 6in4 or IPSec.

    @DavidM2357 it's a bit odd that they'd specify just a GRE tunnel.
    There is a feature request for this, but I don't have an ETA as to if/when it might be available. The request ID for that is FBX-21224.

    Most of the tunnel brokers request SIT, GRE, GRETAP, Wireguard, or L2TP tunnels.
