Easy queston on IPv6 point-to-point

[news2010a]

Hi,

Imagine service provider tells me that Gateway my company is connected is ready for "Dual Stack and Native IPv6".

My border router is currently running IPv4 only.

If I want to keep things simple and establish a point to point connection natively in IPv6 (and avoid configuration of tunnels), if I just assign an IPv6 address to my router is enough? I mean, the fact that I still want to run IPv4 on my routers will force me to use dual stack(thus using dynamic or static tunnels), or I can still expect to setup an IPv6 address on my router and simply connect to service provider gateway IPv6 address?

If your ISP is IPv6 ready the all you have to do enable IPv6 on your end and establish routing between you and ISP over v6 and that's it. I do not see a need for a tunnel in this case unless the devices between your gateway and your end devices are not going to run IPv6 natively.
