WAN dhclient is for ip on WAN?

« on: February 21, 2023, 09:06:57 pm »

Hi,

my problem is, sometimes OPNSense lose ipv4 or ipv6 adress without getting new.
When I go to bash and run "service dhclient restart vtnet0" it starts dhclient (wich was not running) and after that, i got a new ip...

Is dhclient the correct service in OPNSense or what is going wrong?!

OK, thanks.
I will look.

an additional question:
how does dhvpv6 work on wan?
I have problems there too.

but it seems like dhclient only works on ipv4.

How can I renew my ipv6 address over bash??

Not sure what you mean by bash... we don't have bash installed.

And yes, dhclient is iPv4 and dhcp6c is IPv6...

Cheers,
