I did it as Patrick suggested without destination and translation.

You didn't read his post carefully. He just suggested to not state ports.

Did you limit the destination in the NAT rule to the modem IP or subnet?

I did it as Patrick suggested without destination and translation.
But now I tried 192.168.33.1/32 as Destination and have both working! Hurray!

Thank you All for your help and patience!!

Note that you can run the ddclient in two different mode, selectable on the general settings tab: native and ddclient.

That's just the hint I was looking for! Thank you very much! :-D

The WAN network 192.168.33.x was exposed to my private local 10.10.x.x network.

You want to access it from 10.x.x.. So yes, it's accessible.
However, you can ever limit the access to certain LANs or IP addresses by firewall rules.
Just add a rule on the respective internal interface to allow the desired access, followed by a block rule for destination of modem subnet.

Internet did not work any more!!

So you might have done something wrong.
Is the outbound NAT in hybrid mode?
Did you limit the destination in the NAT rule to the modem IP or subnet?

It's certainly a problem with allowlisting. Blocklisting is preferable. I'm unsure much can be done about an initial delay.

Historically, this is one of the main reasons why we added Suricata with true IPS functionality over Snort with a block table over 10 years ago.

Both may provide different service providers.

Mine is in native mode and I can select netcup.

I did what Patrick suggested and could reach my modem. Unfort. there are two side effects:

• The WAN network 192.168.33.x was exposed to my private local 10.10.x.x network.
• Internet did not work any more!!

That's not what I was trying to achive. I do not want to expose 192.168.x.x in my 10.10.x.x network.

What I don't understand is that there are actually two ways dhcp6c is started: once immediately and once per rtsold. 25.7.11 decouples the starts of both so they don't race to the finish line together, but OTOH that was never really the case and only the side effect that the second one would release the IP of the first one and try again (and sometimes fail because the ISP says no to the second request).

You can just start via "/var/etc/rtsold_wan_script.sh igb1" normally which is how the system does it.  "wan" and "igb1" may be different for you.

The other thing is to check /var/etc/dhcp6c.conf if the configuration for "igb1" is actually there or not. In the worst case it's not there when it decides to start which means it may exit as soon as it was started and then it looks like it wasn't started. If not some code path decided that it's simply not ready (or misconfigured).

Here's something interesting... it looks like there is a problem with serving DHCPv6... so after turning on radvd memory consumption started increasing substantially...

German - Deutsch / Alte Hostnamen im Netz

Last post by awado - January 18, 2026, 08:28:50 PM

Hi. Hier im Netz haben manche IPs einen falschen Hostnamen, meist von Geräten, die diese IP vorher mal hatten, aber nicht mehr existieren. Ich sehe die am PC und Laptop, wenn ich einen Netzwerk-Scan mache. Die ARP Tables am PC/Laptop hab ich bereits gelöscht. Nun frage ich mich, ob das vielleicht auch von der OPNsense kommen könnte? Dort macht ISC DHCPv4 seinen Dienst. Bei den Leases ist aber nichts von den Leichen zu finden. Bin also dankbar für Tipps, wo ich noch suchen könnte.
