Title: [solved] just switched to pppoe fiber - ipv6 question wan fe80:
Post by: RamSense on December 23, 2022, 04:39:09 PM
I have just switched my ISP to fiber.
I managed to have IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity.
added interfaces-other-vlan
added interfaces-point to point- pppoe
virtual ip only ipv4: [my given static ipv4 from my isp]/32

Then i check on https://ipv6-test.com/ (https://ipv6-test.com/) I get a score of 20/20

BUT my own hosted email and website are not reachable by IPv6?!

when i add a virtual ipv6 [my router ipv6 found on https://www.whatismyip.com/ (https://www.whatismyip.com/)]/128
(i have an fixed ipv6 range 2a10:xxxx:xxxx::/48)

My website and email are reachable by ipv6, but i have no longer IPV6 connectivity on https://ipv6-test.com/ (https://ipv6-test.com/) and https://www.whatismyip.com/ (https://www.whatismyip.com/)

What is causing this? What am i doing wrong/forgetting?
p.s. Router Advertisements is [managed]
p.s.s. when in terminal I see this in the opnsense menu:
WAN (pppoe0)    -> v4/PPPoE: [my-ipv4-ip]/32
                    v6/DHCP6: fe80::xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:6240%pppoe0/64  <--- why is this showing a fe80:?????

Also can it be that suricata IDS/IPS is not working with poooe? I do not see any alerts coming in since the switch to fiber. I am running suricata on WAN (zenarmour on LAN)

fixed it. somehow the virtual IP ipv4 works with [Gateway] empty automatic. But this did not work for me for ipv6.
As soon as I added the gateway in the virtual ip ipv6, the problem was solved.
