_discoverable: no --- _hidden: no --- title: The Pro IPv6 Box (PIB) --- subtitle: The PIB connects locations and offices --- --- content1_text: ## The professional IPv6 router Like the [VIIRB](../viirb-ipv6-box), the **PIB** is designed to provide IPv6 connectivity for you. The PIB ## How it works The PIB is pre-configured with a Wireguard VPN. With this VPN you will receive a /48 IPv6 prefix. The IPv6 connectivity is provided by [Data Center Light](../projects/data-center-light/). When you plug in the ethernet cable and power it on, it will do the following: * Establish a VPN connection via IPv4 or IPv6 to Data Center Light * Announce a pre-configured /64 network on the LAN * Announce a pre-configured /64 network on the Wifi (optional) By default the firewall is configured to allow outgoing connections from LAN/Wifi towards the VPN. Incoming ICMP6, SSH, HTTP and HTTPS is open by default. ## PIB use cases The configuration and uses cases are the same as the [VIIRB](../viirb-ipv6-box). Additionally the PIB is suited for bigger scale operations with 3 gigabit ports. ## Tech details * Operating System: Linux * Size: 168 mm x 157 mm x 30 mm * CPU: AMD Embedded G series GX-412TC, 1 GHz quad Jaguar core with 64 bit and AES-NI support, 32K data + 32K instruction cache per core, shared 2MB L2 cache. * Memory: 2 or 4 GB DDR3-1333 DRAM * Storage: 16GB m-SATA SSD * SD card (internal sdhci controller), or external USB. 1 SATA + power connector. * Power 12V DC, about 6 to 12W depending on CPU load.
