Cool. The emanicslab2 node at Jacobs is now reachable via IPv6 as
well. Would be cool if one could provide an IPv6 prefix to the node
and then the node would simply radv the prefix via the internal
switch. No crappy translations just plain IPv6 routing. OK, I may be
dreaming.

Yes, and I would hope it is really really simply and not via some
strange translation mechanism. ;-)
