IOT devices
-
@johnpoz Yea thank you for your advice, I have sene you a lot around the forums! I will look at it but I am not seeing many of them when I do see a few it's possible because I have a lot of smart bulbs I mean... ALOT... but only see a few entries.
-
@johnpoz Do you have any advice on my firewall rules for the IOT area? Anything off that maybe I should be doing differently in the rules?
-
@sfigueroa why are you passing that ff02::/16 pfsense not really going to do anything with multicast - are you passing it along with pimd or something? Or you just don't want to see noise in your logs?
-
@johnpoz I didn’t want to see the noise in the logs.
-
You can block it without logging it instead.
-
I am also trying to activate dhcp6 on that interface. It works on wan just fine but all other interfaces the dhcp6 is showing as pending and unknown on the online section. Wan and Lan are showing just fine.
-
You're trying to enable the dhcpv6 server on the IOT interface?
Where exactly are you seeing that status?
-
@stephenw10 on the gateway tab
-
You enabled IOT as a dhcpv6 client? Is there another DHCv6 server on that subnet?
-
@stephenw10 No just the firewall, Im using my old router as an ap.
-
So what gateway are you looking at? pfSense should not have an IPv6 gateway on IOT unless there's some other router on there.
The IOT interface should not be a DHCPv6 client it should be either static or tracking some upstream interface, the same as LAN is. -
@stephenw10 Oh i understand now, ill take a look and let you know how it goes! thank you so much!
