      Please include what you can from the tunnelbroker config.  Thanks.

          Those are all the steps executed like the guide suggests.  Did I miss something?

          Yes I didnt complete the DHCP part in this iteration.  I just want to get IPv6 functionality from pfSense before I add clients to the mix.

            Let me look at it.  In the meantime you might as well go request a /48 in case it takes a few minutes.  You'll need it for your LAN(s).  Unless all you'll ever have is the one LAN.

                I assume IPV6 is enabled on pfsense at System: Advanced: Networking?

                    You need to create a gateway for 2001:470:1f0e:d8e::1

                    Then add an IPv6 static config to the OPT1 interface you assigned to the GIF tunnel.

                    Set it to 2001:470:1f0e:d8e::2/64 with the gateway you just created as the upstream gateway.

                      You don't want it on the LAN?

                      Is your client ipv4 address in HE matching your WAN IP?

                      I gave /64 to each physical interface (except WAN) and each openvpn interface for myself.

                        I dont understand what you mean by creating a Gateway?  Are you talking about editing the gateway address for the existing 'HEIPV6_TUNNELV6' gateway?

                        Also the created interface for the tunnel is 'heIPv6' not opt1, are you referring to something else?

                          I didn't see you renamed it.  Yes, assign the IPv6 static config to your HeIPv6 interface.

                              on the gateway you have as HEIPV6_TUNNELV6 change the address from dynamic to your interface ::1

                                  We just need to get the tunnel and it's assigned interface up so he can ping his ::1 at hurricane.  Then we can dole out /64s out of his shiny new /48 to his local interfaces.

                                      What did you do on the interface then?  Needs to be the ::2 /64

                                          That shouldn't be complaining.

                                          Is the tunnel up?  Can you ping6 your ::1?  It'll only work from pfSense itself.
