IPv6 IPsec tunnel configuration

[blue]

Dear Eric:

Thanks for your reply, but this page explains how to setup configured 
tunnel for IPv6 packets over IPv4 network.

I need a gif0 interface whose endpoints are both IPv6 address, and the 
display should be like:

gif0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1280
    tunnel inet aa:bb:cc:dd::ee --> ww:xx:yy::zz
    inet6 11:22:33:44::11 --> 55:66:77:88::55 netmask 0xffffffffffffffff
 
But currently I could not succeed in making the inner addresses.
