      Hi All,

      I'm a bit of an IPv6 noob so let me apologise first.

      I currently have a VMware Esxi server setup as follows;

      I have a real network interface which is the WAN and a Virtual interface which is the LAN.

      Currently on IPv4 I use NAT for the VM's which connect to the LAN interface.

      These work fine.

      I am now looking to implement IPv6 to my setup.

      I have a /64 range configured on the router to which my server is connected on, the gateway for this is: 2A02:xxxx:xxxx::1

      I then have the WAN interface in Pfsense configured with 2A02:xxxx:xxxx::2

      Both of these are pingable.

      However I cannot work out how to add IPv6 address' to each of my VM's within the LAN interface. I have configured a Windows 2012 server with 2A02:xxxx:xxxx::3 but I can't work out how to pass this through to the WAN on Pfsense.

      Thanks for your help.
