ok, re-Read the message.  that's pretty odd... can you email me an image of the gateways single page.

Here are some screen captures.

can you look in /tmp/ and see if you have a file called ***_defaultgw6 ?

There is no such file.

[marjohn56]

Sorry wrong file. look for ***_routerv6

[marjohn56]

pretty sure we've been down this road before with your system. I think we have to manually add a gateway for dpinger to use.

There is hn0_router and hn0_pdinfo, but no hn0_routerv6. We've done a lot of hacking over the past few years, but I don't recall ever having to manually add a gateway. The default route points to the gateway so the system already knows about it. Why would it have to be manually created?

[marjohn56]

because your not getting a response from rtsold probes to your ISP, which in turn means there's no *_routerv6  file which in turn means that the gateway address is not found, so it's not displayed. I guess the option might be to use netstat to find the gateway when all else fails.

Every time I executed /sbin/rtsol, there was an RS and an RA, observed using wireshark.

Here is the output from the command line:

Code: [Select]

probing hn0
root@OPNsense:~ # /sbin/rtsol -D -a
probing hn0
checking if hn0 is ready...
hn0 is ready

New timer is 0s

send RS on hn0, whose state is 2
set timer for hn0 to 4s
New timer is 4s

then the file should exist. Can you email me with the remote access details and I'll log in. I'll need notepad++, winscp and putty available.
