16.1 Legacy Series / IPv6 only - Wizard does not allow IPv6 addresses
May 30, 2016, 02:56:10 AM
I'm going through the process of learning IPv6 and I decided to setup a dedicated OPNsense virtual machine to do some routing / firewalling.
I ran up the VM and installed OPNsense 16.1.8.
On the CLI I am able to assign the IPv6 addresses (see Selection_074).
I DO NOT have any IPv4 addresses assigned, I do not want to use IPv4 addresses.
I can then open a web page to the LAN address and the wizard appears.
When I run the wizard, whenever I try and use IPv6 addresses, it tells me they are not valid.
Attachment Selection_072 shows the DNS server fields not accepting IPv6 addresses.
Attachment Selection_073 shows that it does not accept an IPv6 address for the WAN interface, it did not detect that the WAN interface already has a static IPv6 assigned.
Without running the wizard, the firewall works and IPv6 traffic is routed, it's just that the wizard appears to be IPv4 oriented, which is not always going to be the case.
