IN The LAN
I HAve Tried with TRACK Interface WAN with and without DHCP6 and depending when i try with or without RA unmanaged / Assisted / managed

What is the "DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation size" in your WAN-settings?

@Bob-Dig

Thank You

I was hoping that maybe could be possible to make the requests coming from the other interfaces look like different devices ... maybe vlans on the wan side ... i don't know that's beyond my abilities.

Thanks just the same

@vader9000 Now what you can do is trying NAT with NPt. This will work ok with outbound connections but only partially with unsolicited inbound connections.

@Bob-Dig

Can you please explain how i can do that on the pfsense so i can give it a try.

thks

@vader9000 Check the docs.
You have to roll out ULAs on all other Interfaces but the LAN, which still gets the one /64 that is working for you.

One example:

You have to create these rules for every other interface than LAN and change the Source accordingly.

On The Interface Lets call it TEST(igb1.5) VLAN tag 5 i Set the interface as STATIC IPV6?
If so wen the ISP changes the ips for the router this will stop working correct?

Yes and you give it an ULA with /64 like shown above.

No, LAN is still handled via Track Interface so in general it should work.

Actually, you can add ULA to the LAN, along with GUA. In fact, I don't think ULA is allowed to route to GUA addresses.

Hello,

Thank you for the help, I managed to get it working on my test box so I will be setting up my live box.

Best regards,

True but at least with Track Interface you need a patch for pfsense and this patch is only working partially.

In fact, I don't think ULA is allowed to route to GUA addresses.

Someone has to test this. I ditched my ULAs because of the mentioned problems, so it won't be me.

RFC 6724 describes priority when you have multiple addresses to choose from, but doesn't appear to get into the GUA <> ULA situation. However, I seem to recall reading elsewhere that it wasn't allowed. Can't say for certain though.

Anyway, I have both GUA and ULA on my subnets.

I just did and I can reach ULA from GUA. I tested from my VPN, which only has GUA to my desktop computer and it's ULA address.
