IPv6 development – needs testing

simoncpu · Jul 24, 2007, 2:10 PM

Hi everyone,

I'm currently implementing IPv6 support in pfSense. I'm developing it in the HEAD branch, and I may commit it to RELENG_1 too. This is a work that is very much in progress… please help me test it!

Right now, I've already started with a few pages. More to come!

Thanks!!! ;D

What is the status of this development?

IPv6 support is still in HEAD, but I haven't worked on it for the past few months because I have no sponsor anymore… =)

Simon,

Apparently HEAD was dropped recently. Check with the devs about maybe porting your work to RELENG_1 if you're still interested in pursuing this.

Hmmm… porting IPv6 features from the old HEAD seems to be a good hobby project... it seems to be a waste not to port my work to RELENG_1. A bounty would be cool if enough people need this. I'd still port it even without a bounty, but it will be at a "hobby pace". :)

The latest 1.3b12 and 1.3b13-pre releases of M0n0wall contain changes to bring in full (?) IPv6 support.

Is it worth looking to see if these changes can be ported into pfSense ?
