IPv6 Multiwan

[cpw]

Hi
I see rumours that multiwan ipv6 is soon to be working in OPNsense and I'd like to help out with testing.

I have two upstream ISP connections: One PPPoE, one normal, both allocate valid ipv6 prefixes using PD.

Currently, the "normal" connection provides PD to the LAN and WIFI local nets. I have no PD from the PPPoE connection because that stops all IPv6 working.

If possible, I'd like the "PPPoE" network to supply ipv6 PD by default to a "static LAN", as well as a "failover" PD to the rest of my local network, to be used only when the "normal" connection is not available.

In theory, this should allow me to do WAN failover for the ipv6 connectivity - currently, if the "normal" connection fails, I lose all ipv6 routing.

Is the new functionality aimed at helping with this? If so, how can I help with testing? What setup would I need to do?

Thanks!

Patience..   we have done a lot of work over the past couple of weeks and have made progress.


Franco wants to get 20.1.7 released before we switch back to working on 20.7. At present there are too many variables that need to be taken into account for reliable testing. An announcement will be made when we are properly ready.

Understood. Let me know if/when you want some multiwan ipv6 testing and what you want done.

Soon... not too long now hopefully.

20.1.7 is out tomorrow and the dev version has the first batch of changes included.


Cheers,
Franco
