General Discussion / Re: Is IPv6 really this high-maintainence? What am I missing?
« on: October 17, 2020, 01:17:02 am »
I'm new here, reading about OPNsense in hopes of finding a solution to the same issue. Cox Cable swaps the delegated prefix every few weeks with no option of keeping your old one. Can't go elsewhere as Cox is the best local provider.
My hope is that OPNsense will support both Prefix Delegation and ULA addressing but I haven't located that information yet. The static locally rout-able addresses will solve your pi-hole and ntp server's ever changing address issues if it works here.
It kinda works on the platform I'm on now but a reboot fouls everything up due to a bug they aren't intending to fix. Their only suggestion is to use a tunnel-broker for the IP v6 connection which isn't something I want to do.
If you find something before I do please post it!
