Simple. The ability to forward DHCPv6 PD to downstream routers from OPNsense is only in ISC-DHCP and Kea. In Kea there is no integration for dynamic prefixes. Dnsmasq does not support it at all.

26.1 Series / Re: Suricata - Divert (IPS)

Issue has been created as requested.

Another upside to using Divert (IPS) mode, the memory consumption has been cut in half since Netmap is no longer being used :)

Looking forward to see what you figure out and hope you can share it here, I just noticed in the Kea documentation: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/kea.html#prefix-delegation-ia-pd "Dynamic prefixes common with most residential ISPs are not supported." so I'm totally confused, maybe staying on Dnsmasq+Track interface (legacy) will be the best - and only working(?) solution for now hoping that "Track interface (legacy)" won't be removed some time in the future?

Seeing the same thing, with the same setup. I had gone with dnsmasq per the migration suggestions at the time, but it seems as if Kea is the only option now for this particular ISP setup.

# pluginctl -m

Thanks Franco for the feedback. I ran it but it didn't return anything and it didn't change the behaviour.

Hotfix is available now for everyone. Make sure to restart hostwatch to ensure the correct version is running since there is no reboot.

Quote from: FraLem on January 30, 2026, 08:13:22 AMLooks great, looking forward to the Smartctl version.

Thanks for sharing

Thanks, FraLem, for the kind words! However, I'm not sure what you mean by "looking forward to the Smartctl version." as the script uses smartctl to collect its metrics. If you meant looking forward to the SATA version, I'd appreciate it if you, or anyone, could provide a few sample outputs of `smartctl -j -a` on a SATA drive so I can make the required changes, thanks! I've added a file for logging these to the repo here: smartctl-outputs.md

Thank you for this post. I had three instances that almost ran out of diskspace. Was able to fix it because of this in a couple of minutes.
