      I did everything as in:
      http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Using_IPv6_on_2.1_with_a_Tunnel_Broker

      However when I try to ping or traceroute I get:
      [2.1-BETA0][**]/(3): ping6 2001:4860:4860::8888
      PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) 2001:470::::1 –> 2001:4860:4860::8888
      ping6: sendmsg: Network is down
      ping6: wrote 2001:4860:4860::8888 16 chars, ret=-1
      ping6: sendmsg: Network is down
      ping6: wrote 2001:4860:4860::8888 16 chars, ret=-1
      ping6: sendmsg: Network is down
      ping6: wrote 2001:4860:4860::8888 16 chars, ret=-1
      ping6: sendmsg: Network is down
      ping6: wrote 2001:4860:4860::8888 16 chars, ret=-1

      Why?

        Not nearly enough info there.

        Please show the output of:

        ifconfig -a
        netstat -rn

        And also make sure that the he.net tunnelbroker server you're using can ping your WAN IP, if it can't ping your WAN IP, they won't send you traffic.

          Found out the problem.

          pfBlocker is blocking 66.220.2.74 for some odd reason.  ???

          Snort is blocking 66.220.2.74, I did a whitelist including that IP on Snort, but even so is still blocking.

          pfBlocker might be the culpit, I'll need to test it with that turn off.

          Any simple way to do a whitelist for pfBlocker?

            I did a whitelist for pfBlocker, will test when it changes IP (is working fine atm).

            Also, Snort isn't showing any IPv6 attack, only IPv4.  So it needs to gets updated.
