#### Config start
###
### This configuration file must set the following variables:
### MYIF, DEVNAME, LOCAL_IPV4, EXTERNAL_IPV4,
### HEUSER, HEPASS, HETUNNEL,
### HESERVER4END, HESERVER6END and HECLIENT6END
#MYIF="en1" # en1 = Airport, en0 = Ethernet
MYIF=`netstat -f inet -r | grep default | tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f 6` # autodetect
DEVNAME='gif0'
# LOCAL_IPV4=`ifconfig #MYIF | grep 'inet ' | tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f 2` # if you need to use your public ip address, use LOCAL_IP=$EXTERNAL_IPV4 instead
LOCAL_IPV4=`ifconfig $MYIF |grep -E 'inet.[0-9]' | grep -v '127.0.0.1' | awk '{ print $2}'`
#EXTERNAL_IPV4=`curl -s "http://www.networksecuritytoolkit.org/nst/cgi-bin/ip.cgi"`
EXTERNAL_IPV4=`curl -s "http://v4.ipv6-test.com/api/myip.php"`
# one more site, to get your external IPv4 IP: http://v4.ipv6-test.com/api/myip.php
#EXTERNAL_IPV4='AUTO' # ← If you don't want to get use www.networksecuritytoolkit.org but tunnelbroker.net, then set it to AUTO
HEUSER='dn6483m67d411ba0.26906527' # hash from the website, "UserID"
HEPASS='32f325019357278d1da3ba06887fa6f1' # hash: echo -n MyPass|md5
HETUNNEL=12056 # from the website, "Global Tunnel ID"
### other settings from the website (the tunnel settings):
HESERVER4END='216.66.80.30'
HESERVER6END=2001:470:1f0a:3333::1
