Initial installer/setup: ipv6 gateway not set as "onlink"

[5SpeedFun]

That is exactly what I asked them.  What is the LL of the gateway they are providing and support understood my question as "how do I find my own link local address?"  :'(

So something else weird:

I added the LL I found in a tcpdump via the web UI (see attacchment), and the gw monitoring is working (it's pingable) but in the route table it looks like it's on loopback?  Yet on the config page I assigned it to WAN ((which is vtnet1)

And no...it doesn't work.

@franco - is this expected behavior?

Sounds like you used a wrong LLA.
Try getting it from Interfaces>Diagnostics->NDP Table page. Locate the one that has a different MAC address than the one that has your GUA. You can also identify by Manufacturer name if it existed (eg: Cisco, Juniper etc).

The LLA I found in the NDP table has the same MAC as the non LL gateway they gave me....

eg: MAC of ipv6 default gw = MAC of LL that I found, so I assume it's the same device.  Is that a bad assumption?

Bump for visibility.  I hope this is allowed.
