I have an IPv6 tunnel from Hurricane Electric, and went to configure it in "Interfaces: Other Types: GIF". However, the documentation says the "GIF tunnel remote address" should be configured as /64, but the drop-down only goes from 1 to 32.
Also, when I enter the information per the documentation, the UI complains about the IP addresses not being valid.
Is it the same bug as reported in https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=8733.0 ?
There, they say:
"There appears to be a bug in the UI code.
That is, I can manually put a /64 after the tunnel-local-addr, like this:
<tunnel-local-addr>2001:XX:XX:XX::2/64</tunnel-local-addr>
in /conf/config.xml
And if I immediately restart, and go to Interfaces->other-GIF0 and click edit,
2001:XX:XX:XX::2/64 appears in the "GIF Tunnel Local Address" web field.
If I click "Save", I get the red banner of input error:
The following input errors were detected:
The tunnel local and tunnel remote fields must have valid IP addresses."
Hi,
Are you talking about https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/ipv6_tunnelbroker.html where what you says no longer exists?
Are you talking about the bug fixed in the docs 5 months ago?
https://github.com/opnsense/docs/commit/4d18ffae9b3
How are you running into this issue?
Cheers,

PS: Forgive my confusion if you talk about remote address and then edit tunnel-local-addr in the config.
On https://docs.opnsense.org/_images/opnsense_add_gif.png (which is included on https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/ipv6_tunnelbroker.html) it shows '64' on the "GIF tunnel remote address" field.
Try a different browser. The select box is expanded to IPv6 subnet values on IPv6 input in the main address field.
Cheers,

Oh, thanks! It worked with Chromium.
