        I also notice many messages like "Jun 11 11:02:57 pfSense radvd[84278]: can't join ipv6-allrouters on ix1.116"

        However I would like to add:

        • after installing the 3 june package a few days ago ..... they were gone
        • today I installed the 10 june package and they where back
        • and I did have an IPV6 routing problem ...
        • than I did a reboot and ... the messages where gone
        • and my IPV6 routing issue seems to be gone

        Note that this is not at all an real test, just a quick obeservation.

        Louis

          The routing log was full of the messages this morning, so the problem is still present.

              I updated Redmine issue #9577 with a revised RADVD install package for those continuing to experience problems. I left instructions there how to install.

              I have had installs run for more than 35 days with the revised RADVD only to stop it to install new 2.5 updates..

                @w0w I tried to apply the patch to 2.5.0-development using this commit ID: https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/pull/773/commits/387a6ef1e4fd514596502e162878f64f0002170c, but it could not be applied. Am I doing something wrong?

                  @bimmerdriver Not sure, I rebase my git with every update and it works here.
                  Are you applying it to the ports Git? What errors are you getting?

                    @rschell I didn't do anything with git. I tried to apply the patch directly to the development snapshot and it failed. I guess that's the problem.

                      @bimmerdriver it’s applying changes to the C code of RADVD, so it needs to be compiled. I have uploaded a compiled version to redmine. You can install that package and it will survive most updates except full port replacements.
