Hello everyone,

I am trying to migrate my baremetal box from pfsense to opnsense, but it looks like I cannot get my IPv6 working

Before for pfsense installation I followed the tutorial here https://www.zacharyschneider.ca/2020/12/pfsense-ipv6-telus/ and was having my IPv6 working just fine.

But it looks like in the opnsense world "Do not wait for RA" got removed for whatever reason.
Does anyone know whats the equivalent in opnsense for this option right now?
All my LANs are just showing as track6 and none of them has v6 address assigned and none of my device can get v6 address through SLAAC

Also the "Do not allow PD release" option is not at the same location as pfsense, but I think the equivalent is at Interfaces -> Settings -> IPv6 DHCP -> Prevent release?

Thanks in advance


Thanks a lot for the link.
So eventually IPv6 starts to work on my opnsense box without any config change, probably waited for like 20-30 minutes maybe?
I am curious if there is a way for opnsense to skip the wait (aka do not wait RA) so every reboot it will get v6 working right away
