Yes I have play with setting up IPv6 in the labs, to the point where I can start surfing ipv6.google.com, and of course we tried out stuff like ping6 and traceroute6.
The labs however, all have "public" IPv6 address, there was no NAT, all the packets are just route straight to the net and straignt back via routers/gateways.
I guess I am wondering how should a private network for IPv6 to set up... you know on IPv4 there are special address space reserved for private use, 10.0.0.0/8 for e.g... I am not aware of such thing for IPv6, so does that mean you just use random IPv6 address for IPv6? By random I mean, set up your own rule, map to existing IPv4 ip range or something, just not some specific thing like 10.0.0.0/8.

protocols
protocols(4) File Formats protocols(4)
NAME
protocols - protocol name database
SYNOPSIS
/etc/inet/protocols
/etc/protocols
DESCRIPTION
The protocols file is a local source of information regarding the known protocols used in the DARPA Internet. The protocols file can be
used in conjunction with or instead of other protocols sources, including the NIS maps ``protcols.byname'' and "protocols.bynumber" and the
NIS+ table ``protocols''. Programs use the getprotobyname(3SOCKET) routine to access this information.
The protocols file has one line for each protocol. The line has the following format:
official-protocol-name protocol-number aliases
Items are separated by any number of blanks and/or TAB characters. A `#' indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up to the end of
the line are not interpreted by routines which search the file. Protocol names may contain any printable character other than a field
delimiter, NEWLINE, or comment character.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 A Sample Database
The following is a sample database:
#
# Internet (IP) protocols
#
ip 0 IP # internet protocol, pseudo protocol number
icmp 1 ICMP # internet control message protocol
ggp 3 GGP # gateway-gateway protocol
tcp 6 TCP # transmission control protocol
egp 8 EGP # exterior gateway protocol
pup 12 PUP # PARC universal packet protocol
udp 17 UDP # user datagram protocol
#
# Internet (IPv6) extension headers
#
hopopt 0 HOPOPT # Hop-by-hop options for IPv6
ipv6 41 IPv6 # IPv6 in IP encapsulation
ipv6-route 43 IPv6-Route # Routing header for IPv6
ipv6-frag 44 IPv6-Frag # Fragment header for IPv6
esp 50 ESP # Encap Security Payload for IPv6
ah 51 AH # Authentication Header for IPv6
ipv6-icmp 58 IPv6-ICMP # IPv6 internet control message protocol
ipv6-nonxt 59 IPv6-NoNxt # No next header extension header for IPv6
ipv6-opts 60 IPv6-Opts # Destination Options for IPv6
FILES
/etc/nsswitch.conf configuration file for name-service switch
SEE ALSO
