Is there a way for the firewall to track IPv6 clients behind it and update dynamic DNS entries on a service like Cloudflare?
-
I think the way we have it setup, we are getting IPv6 from the prefix delegation off the WAN. The way to track the IPv6 IPs assigned would be to configure the OPNsense router box as the DHCPv6 server, then dolling out IPs that way. Currently I think we are still getting IPv6 IPs from the upstream router beyond the OPNsense box.
btw, I'm still trying to understand this stuff, someone correct me if I am completely wrong...
-
No, I believe you're correct. You could build an application on the router to harvest the IPv6 assignments and correlate them with a MAC -> host table. Sending an update to the IPv6 DDNS platform when a change is detected.
Log on to your router and look at the current discovery information:
ndp -an
If your discovery seems light, then you can ping the multicast address to update the neighbor discovery:
ping6 -I em0 -c 3 ff02::1 Where em0 is your LAN interface.
As an example, my LAN interface knows about my LAN client and I could write a script to do this very coarsely. I would much rather it be baked in to the GUI and supported by the project. I would be willing to contribute to this effort, too, but I couldn't fund the entirety.
-
I borrowed a little bit of code from the NDP diagnostics page and can execute this on the firewall to identify my desired host updates.

It would be awesome if something like this could wind up in the UI to set up. I'll continue to hack out my script for my purposes. If anyone is interested in the finished product please shout out.

Workable script below. Several assumptions are made
- IPv6 address is based on MAC address. Windows does not default to this. You can fix with the code below and a reboot.
- Domain is 2 levels like example.com and not 3 like example.co.uk
netsh interface ipv6 set global randomizeidentifiers=disabled
netsh interface ipv6 set privacy state=disabled
PHP code - This can be run as a cron job on the firewall. This works for CloudFlare using their V4 API.

bcjenkins, I'll happily pick up these pieces of code, but I am unsure about how to structure them, e.g. general purpose IPv6, specialised CloudFlare-Plugin, or bind into DynDNS code itself?
It would also be appreciated to include your name and email into the copyright to make it explicit that you agree with the 2 Clause BSD license. :)
Thanks so far.

To be honest, this is pretty specific to Cloudflare. My registrar didn't support DDNS for IPv6 and I am looking for a way to track the addresses automatically. Cloudflare's service is free to use and it might be interesting to create a mechanism which would leverage the NDP discovery to select which entries you would like to create records for.
The account email and API key is all you would need to do this. Each entry should have a MAC address, host, domain name, and TTL. If you were to store the zone ID, host ID, in the database and it will save additional calls on updates. The new API (V4) uses FQDN for host entries and domain name for zones. The FQDN can be the zone or sub-domains.
