Title: Static IPv6 address on LAN but can't use DHCP for clients
Post by: Carls_Car on July 16, 2024, 08:41:18 AM
Hello folks!

I have everything working great with track interface, RA/DHCPv6 working exactly how I want it.

However! I'd like to statically define my LAN address rather than have it assigned by DHCP. When I do this, DHCPv6 service stops, and I cannot get it to turn back on. IPv6 is routing no problem, because if I statically assign an address to a LAN client, I can ping the LAN interface IP I set and I can ping Google's IPv6 address.

Am I missing something simple?

Figured it out... Must manually set a the full IPv6 addresses in the DHCPv6 ranges. Cannot use the suffix only.
