General Discussion / Static internal IPv6 setup with dynamic PD
« on: March 19, 2024, 10:34:43 pm »
Hello,
My ISP provides me with a /56 dynamic prefix delegation. Although the addresses don't change very often, they do change sometimes.
I know this topic has probably been covered in many threads, but I couldn't find a consolidated answer to it, so allow me to ask: how do I go about configuring static IPv6 internal addresses given that my assigned PD is dynamic?
My specific use case is having an AdGuard Home instance running in my home network and wanting to force all IPv6 DNS requests to be redirected to it. I guess I could use also use a proxy to translate the requests to IPv4, but if I could setup fixed IPv6 addresses it would be great.
My current IPv6 setup uses the "Track Interface" feature on each LAN I have available. I also have the "Allow manual adjustment of DHCPv6 and Router Advertisements" checkbox ticked, although I'm not enabling DHCPv6 on any of my LAN interfaces. As for RAs, I have "Assisted" mode enabled and "Do not send any DNS configuration to clients" checked (at least while I can't properly configure AdGuard with a static IPv6).
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
