18.1 Legacy Series / Lost IPv6 on the router itself after upgrade
« on: February 09, 2018, 02:12:00 pm »
So I waited for 18.1.2 to be ready and upgraded my up-to-date 17.x box. It went to 18.1.1 only, but for LAN clients everything was working fine (including IPv6). Then I decided to upgrade to 18.1.2 and it was "aborted internally". opnsense-update was hanging on pkg-static invocations.
Well, I thought, I've seen something similar when I had my IPv6 misconfigured. And I tried the relevant pkg operations with -4 flag. It worked. Ooops.
Now, everything was working fine (especially regarding the IPv6 for LAN clients and router itself) on 17.x. But after upgrade only router itself has no IPv6 connectivity. The pings and traceroute6 seems to be working, but no actual data is going through (e.g. curl -6 http://google.com/ just times out without receiving anything).
Any advice appreciated on how to debug it further.
