You use the IPv6 over the same interfaces as your IPv4.

On my firewall at home:

eth0:  
  24.216.225.11  (DHCP on my cablemodem)
  fe80::2a0:ccff:fe5d:7815 (Assigned by tunnelbroker.net

eth1:
  192.168.0.1 (My choise)
  2001:470:1f00:465::1  (The first IP ".1" from the /64 given to me by
                         tunnelbroker.net)

Once you sign up with tunnelbroker.net they'll give you the exact
config options you need.  You'll want to find and install "ping6" and
"traceroute6".  To look up the IP of an IPv6 addr use this:

host -t aaaa ipv6.rdlg.net


This is my config file "/etc/init.d/tunnelbroker.sh" I use:

#! /bin/sh

case "$1" in
  start)
        ifconfig sixbone down > /dev/null 2>&1
        ifconfig sit0 down > /dev/null 2>&1
        ifconfig sit1 down > /dev/null 2>&1
        ip tunnel add sixbone mode sit remote 64.71.128.82 local
24.216.225.11 ttl 255
        ip link set sixbone up
        ip addr add 2001:470:1F00:FFFF::2DB/127 dev sixbone
        ip route add ::/0 dev sixbone
        ip -f inet6 addr
        ;;
  stop)
        ifconfig sixbone down > /dev/null 2>&1
        ifconfig sit0 down > /dev/null 2>&1
        ifconfig sit1 down > /dev/null 2>&1
        ;;
  reload|restart|force-reload)
        $0 stop
        $0 start
        ;;
  *)
        echo "Usage: $N {start|stop|restart|force-reload}" >&2
        exit 1
        ;;
esac

exit 0
