        @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˜–
