Hi Koichi,

You should drop the "inet6" from "ipv6_ifconfig_vtnet0", i.e.,

    ipv6_ifconfig_vtnet0="2001:470:d:461::7:1"

then IPv6 should just work after reboot or restarting IPv6 network.

The IPv6 settings in DragonFly BSD are a bit different from the FreeBSD,
as the IPv6 infrastructure isn't keep update with FreeBSD ...
