      Hmm, to do what? You can source traffic from it. You can add a ULA gateway on it and route through that.

          @Zermus said in NAT66 support is needed and 2nd interface IPv6 IP option for ULA would be nice:

          we need NAT66 lol.

          I think pfSense already does that. But who is we?

            If I understand it correctly you can't use NPt because the translation prefix conflicts with the assigned prefix on the WAN?

                You can just add a 1:1 NAT rule between the VIP and the ULA address. I tested that here and it works as expected.

                        You do it with Virtual IP?

                        I have both global and unique local addresses on my LAN.

                        PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
                        i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
                        UniFi AC-Lite access point

                        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

                          @JKnott Well aren't you special? Some of us are not as privileged who want to run our servers behind a pfSense frontend over at Vultr lol. ๐Ÿ˜–
