Perl Http Post over SSL
Hello,

I'm using a tunnel broker for tunneling IPv6 traffic, as my ISP does not support it natively. As of recent i switched from Hurricane Electrics tunnel broker to Sixxs.

Whenever my IP address changes, i have to manually log in and change it. This is a bit cumbersome so i was thinking of devising a Perl script for this.

With my old tunnel broker ( The one from HE), logins were made over basic Http, this made this a lot easier as you could actually see what was being sent. For example, firing up Wireshark showed.
Code:
f_user=<username>$clearpass=$f_pass=<md5_password>&redir=&Login=Login

With the tunnel broker from Sixxs logins are made over SSL, so you have no idea of what is being sent. Is there a way to figure out what to pass to POST?

Any suggestions or ideas?

etherip

ETHERIP(4)						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						ETHERIP(4)

NAME

     etherip -- EtherIP tunneling device

SYNOPSIS

     pseudo-device etherip

DESCRIPTION

     The etherip interface is a tunneling pseudo device for Ethernet frames.  It can tunnel Ethernet traffic over IPv4 and IPv6 using the EtherIP
     protocol specified in RFC 3378.

     The only difference between an etherip interface and a real Ethernet interface is that there is an IP tunnel instead of a wire.  Therefore,
     to use etherip the administrator must first create the interface and then configure protocol and addresses used for the outer header.  This
     can be done by using ifconfig(8) create and tunnel subcommands, or SIOCIFCREATE and SIOCSLIFPHYADDR ioctls.

   Packet format
     Ethernet frames are prepended with a EtherIP header as described by RFC 3378.  The resulting EtherIP packets will be encapsulated in an outer
     packet, which may be either an IPv4 or IPv6 packet, with IP protocol number 97.

   Ethernet address
     When a etherip device is created, it is assigned an Ethernet address of the form f2:0b:a5:xx:xx:xx.  This address can later be changed
     through a sysctl node.

     The sysctl node is net.link.etherip.<iface>.  Any string of six colon-separated hexadecimal numbers will be accepted.  Reading that node will
     provide a string representation of the current Ethernet address.

   Security
     The EtherIP header of incoming packets is not checked for validity.  This is because there seems to be some confusion about how such a header
     has to look like.	For outgoing packets, the header is set up the same way as done in OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and Linux to be compatible with those
     systems.

   Converting from previous implementation
     A tunnel configured for the previous (undocumented) implementation will work with just renaming the device from gif to etherip.

SEE ALSO

     bridge(4), gif(4), inet(4), inet6(4), tap(4), ifconfig(8)

HISTORY

     The etherip device first appeared in NetBSD 4.0, it is based on tap(4), gif(4), and the former gif-based EtherIP implementation ported from
     OpenBSD.

BUGS

     Probably many.  There is lots of code duplication between etherip, tap(4), gif(4), and probably other tunnelling drivers which should be
     cleaned up.
