      There is no NDP proxy. There is no need for one.

      The LAN subnet and WAN subnet must be different. You can't use NPt or similar to NAT a "private" IPv6 LAN to the WAN IPv6 subnet. There must be separate subnets for WAN and LAN and the LAN subnet must be routed to your firewall's IP address in the WAN subnet.

          Errrrrrrr… Sounds more like you need to do some IPv6 for dummies reading... You have 256 /64s in your /56.

              Show your numbers if you like help. Report your WAN address subnet-value and your LAN subnet value… [(f you must), hide the first /48 and show the last /80 part… ]

                Try using ::2 in the first /64 for your WAN IP address and then use the second /64 for your LAN. Usually when ISPs give you just one large block they assume the first /64 inside it is the WAN.

                  You know if you don't like the way your isp is doing ipv6, you can just get a free tunnel from HE.. You cant get a /48 from them if you want.. I have both a /64 and /48 I use the /64 on my lan and then I use a few of the /64's out of the /48 for my other segments and openvpn clients, etc.

                  Rock solid works deployment.. They even allow you to setup PTR on your ipv6 addresses if you want, etc.  Or even delegate the ipv6 networks to your own nameservers, etc.  Does your isp let you do that ;)

                  And you don't have to worry about your isp giving you a different prefix next week.. When you hit a different dhcp server, etc.

                    Thank you all

                    ISP : SFR
                    they give me : 2a02:8428:ef:7500::/56
                    the box can't be configured in bridge mode : ip is : 2a02:8428:ef:7500::1/56
                    i use 2axy:8428:ef:7501::/64 for my LAN (ex : 2a02:8428:ef:7501::100, gateway : 2a02:8428:ef:7501::10)
                    ping from 2axy:8428:ef:7501::100 to :

                    on tcpdump on em3 (2a02:8428:ef:7500::2) i can see the echo request , but i don't see the echo reply …. :

                      i can t change PTR
                      i can t do bridge the box
                      i can use a DMZ , they impose (i try this) :
                      2a02:8428:ef:7501::/64
                      gateway :

                        You have two router in series, cascading networks. ?

                        If you want public IPv6 on your pfSense-LAN, then your pfSense-WAN have to request your ISP-box with DHCP6-Client for a prefix&subnet first ?, provided your ISP-box can function as a DHCP6-Server…

                        IPv6, no pfSense issue forya. Your ISP-box has the /56. Your pfSense is a slave with other LAN subnet-value and local prefix between /57 and /63.

                        Your pfSense-WAN on mask /56 doesn't look correct. (but /64 or /128).

                          Sounds like your settings are OK. If your LAN IP address can ping the upstream gateway then your local setup is fine, and probably even the routing at your next hop is OK, but it sounds like maybe the routing/rules upstream from you is broken.

                          A traceroute6 to your WAN and LAN IP addresses both stop at your gateway. I'd normally expect it to work if all that is fine, unless the ISP is filtering the traffic.

                          If you can ping your gateway and a traceroute from the outside to your LAN subnet is OK, then the routing is probably OK at the ISP end of things.

                          Sure you used /64 for the prefix on all your interfaces?

                                  @hda -> not sure to anderstand :

                                  You have two router in series, cascading networks. ?

                                  If you want public IPv6 on your pfSense-LAN, then your pfSense-WAN have to request your ISP-box with DHCP6-Client for a prefix&subnet first ?, provided your ISP-box can function as a DHCP6-Server…

                                  IPv6, no pfSense issue forya. Your ISP-box has the /56. Your pfSense is a slave with other LAN subnet-value and local prefix between /57 and /63.

                                  Your pfSense-WAN on mask /56 doesn't look correct. (but /64 or /128).

                                  do you suggest to have a ip by the dhcp from box for wan IPv6 pfsense?
                                  i can try

                                    @hda ->dhcp give me a /128 :
                                    inet6 2a02:8428:ef:7500:c9ca:8e5d:732b:d96b prefixlen 128

                                    i try to use : 2a02:8428:ef:7500::10 / 64 for pfsense WAN
                                    2a02:8428:ef:7501::10 /64 for pfsense LAN
                                    default getway : 2a02:8428:ef:7500::1/56
                                    2a02:8428:ef:7501::10 can't ping box (2a02:8428:ef:7500::1)

                                    have you an idea?

                                      Yes DHCP6, and ask for a prefix /62 to pfSense.
                                      Then try to use Track Interface on your pfSense-LAN.
                                      Put a host-PC on the LAN and see if that PC get response from http://ipv6-test.com/

                                        dhcp give me a /128, do you suggest to use a IPv6 /128 for pfsense WAN and a /62 for IPv6 pfsense LAN?

                                        i try :
                                        2a02:8428:ef:7500::10 / 64 for pfsense WAN
                                        2a02:8428:ef:7501::10 /64 for pfsense LAN

                                        what do you suggest ? because  /128 in pfsense WAN and /62 for pfsense LAN seems strange

                                          Consider: your ISP-Box supplies on request, you probably can not grab a number you like…

                                          SO, don't do all static, but do DHCP6 from pfSense-WAN to your ISP-Box. Then read reply #19 again...
