        IPv6 can t outgoing to internet after upgrade, running well as before on LAN
        i try to add a rule at top for forcing :
        rule :
        action : pass
        interface : LAN
        protocol : IPv6
        source : my LAN IPv6
        destination : any

        same can t outgoing

        i try a restore from my backup done just before the migration same issue

          Moved this to general.

          What sort of the IPv6 configuration do you have?

          Can you connect out from pfSense directly on IPv6? Like ping6 from Diag > Ping?

          How are you testing from the LAN? What error do you see?

            thank you for your reply

            i have an internet box (freenbox) with IPv6 2a01:e0a:1ef:7590::1/64
            on pfsense i have the IPv6 2a01:e0a:1ef:7590::2/128 for WAN
            on pfsense i have the IPv6 2a01:e0a:1ef:7591::1/128 for LAN

            ping test from pfsense from WAN to google.fr working fine :
            pf-ping.png
            ping test from pfsense from LAN to google.fr not working
            pf-ping1.png

            LAN interface config :
            pf-LAN-config.png

            i can ping all host under the sub network 2a01:e0a:1ef:7591::/64
            from LAN i can t ping 2a01:e0a:1ef:7590::1

              How are those subnets routed to you? Everything is statically assigned?

              It looks like the 2a01:e0a:1ef:7591/64 subnet just isn't being routed so you see no replies.

                the subnet is linked by FAI perthe local IPv6 fe80::a236:9fff:fef8:f308 : ix0

                in 2.7.2 and older was working without gateway
                need i add gateway?
                if yes which?

                Thank you for your help

                  after using the local IPv6 of box as router it s working :

                  pf-lan-ipv6-ping-ok.png

                  but still same my hosts in the lan can t outgoing to internet
                  i use the the current default gateway mean the IPv6 of LAN

                  i can to access to server from outside LAN network
                  example :

                  < [06:29:44] - root@ns5:~ >

                    Yes the upstream nexthop setting for the LAN subnet should be the WAN LinkLocal address (fe80::a236:9fff:fef8:f309) not LAN. That's what you changed?

                    So ping6 works now from LAN clients but not so all destinations?

                    TCP connections all fail?

                    What firewall rules do you have on LAN?

                      So ping6 works now from LAN clients but not so all destinations?
                      correct .....

                      TCP connections all fail?

                      not all

                      What firewall rules do you have on LAN?
                      too much permissive : )
