24.1 Legacy Series / Re: IPv6 Prefix Alias

@Maurice: Thank you for that information.

@emzy: Yes, there is another way to implement what I want to achieve. But it would be more convenient with the alias described. A small example: I want to allow the access to the internet via IPv6 for all destination addresses, expect the local used prefix.

24.1 Legacy Series / Re: IPv6 Prefix Alias

A short example what i mean. When I connect to the internet I will get a prefix like this:

2a00:abcd:1234:9300::/56

With tracking I could assign for example the id 0x12 for the KIDS network. So the KIDS Network uses addresses like 2a00:abcd:1234:9312::/64. With the Dynamic IPv6 Host alias it is possible to address one pc/server/... in the KIDS network. Just use a mask like ::2345:6789:abcd:0001 and the alias would contain 2a00:abcd:1234:9312:2345:6789:abcd:0001/128. Also there is an alias __opt# containing 2a00:abcd:1234:9312::/64. That is all fine and works for me.

I am looking for an alias containing 2a00:abcd:1234:9300::/56.

24.1 Legacy Series / IPv6 Prefix Alias

« on: February 03, 2024, 03:03:53 pm »

Hi all.

My provider assigns me an IPv4 Address and an IPv6 Prefix /56. I use "Track Interface" for my internal VLANs. That all works great, no problem here. I am looking for an easy way to get a firewall alias with that /56 prefix from my internet provider. I only find aliases for the prefixes of the individual NICs, but none for the prefix from the provider.

Thanks,
Steffen
