    @JonathanLee said in Seeking Insight on IPV6 Suricata Alerts – "Excessive Retransmissions" and "Wrong Direction First Data": SURICATA Applayer Wrong direction first Data Here is the link in the Suricata docs for this stream rule alert: https://docs.suricata.io/en/latest/rules/app-layer.html#applayer-wrong-direction-first-data. The short version of the story is that even today, after several attempted fixes within Suricata, the coders of client/server software apps seem to still be able via crappy coding to craft network flows that trip up the Suricata parser. This is basically a harmless error. As @SteveITS said, the best thing is to disable all the Suricata stream event rules. They are informational anyway and don't necessarily indicate malicious traffic.

    @SteveITS It looks like it is detecting ipv6 better already is showing alerts [image: 1752342154032-screenshot-2025-07-12-at-10.39.56-resized.png] It sees some ipv6 going to my interface. Again snort also would spot stuff every once a a while. My son got a bad bug on his tablet and it had a Russian email server running I checked it on virus total and it was spot on as malware known abuses so I reported it

    @Gertjan Fixed it. I had on the interface address both an IPv6 address and an "IPv4 address embedded in the IPv6 address (this is known as IPv6-mapped IPv4 addresses or IPv6 embedded IPv4 addresses)" before that is normally not for interfaces only the static device assignments so that is corrected my Pv6-mapped IPv4 addresses or IPv6 embedded IPv4 addresses are now only on the Lan devices and not on the firewall interfaces.

    @Seeking-Sense said in How do I enable IPv6 traffic on VLAN for IoT Matter traffic?: @dennypage … Do you have any experience with the Tapo switches? I don’t have direct experience with Tapo. However I do have experience with Kasa, and I can attest that TP-Link goes out of its way to push / force you onto cloud services.

    @Bob-Dig That looks like it worked! Is there a limitation I should be aware of with how quickly those rules will update? I just don't want to leave an open hole in my firewall whenever my ISP drops the ball.

    Hmm, that's a good question. Let me run some tests.... You can install using the legacy installer and upgrade if needed: https://atxfiles.netgate.com/mirror/downloads/ Steve

    @Gertjan said in Dynamic DNS client "extracted from local system": To know if the WAN IP really changed ? Easy. Store the latest succeeded updated WAN IPv4 address locally. This is the cache file. Compare the actual WAN IPv4 with the cache ;: Just going to take this opportunity to point out that this causes a problem in the case where we restore to a replacement router in our lab before delivery. DDNS is updated to our office IP. Live router will not update because its cached IP didn’t change. (Workaround is to manually modify the file on disk to fool it, as I recall)

    Did you have a specific question? If you're unsure I would first try installing CE on whatever hardware you have to test it. Steve

    UPDATE: This issue is not specific to the use of large mtg (jumbo frames). It affects ICMP6 generally in this configuration. I don't know if the issue is due to the VLAN or the combination of a VLAN on a bridge. IPv4 is not affected and ICMP message sizes (with do-not-fragment set) respect the configured mtu.

    @tmoore said in Setting up ipv6 with one /64 allocation: For what it's worth my ISP is Teksavvy. I phoned in to them this morning and asked them to give me a /56 address delegation which they have done. So now I have a /56. Are you connected via Bell or Rogers? If Rogers, you might want to check the Rogers config. A friend of mine is with Teksavvy on Rogers. Another friend used be be with them on Bell. As for that pending gateway, you have to provide a monitor address that responds to pings. For mine, I ran traceroute to Google and picked the first address that responded. That address is 2607:f798:10:10d2:0:241:5615:217. It might be different for you, depending on where you are.

    @bmeeks said in Why do I have to 'Track Interface' on LAN to WAN for IPv6 to work?: The correct way to handle this is to use a separate sub-domain for your internal AD setup. Something like mydomain.com for the public IP domain name and internal.mydomain.com for the Windows AD network in RFC1918 space. That can work. A quick Google search will lead you to a Microsoft best practices and how-to article on this configuration. I highly recommend you restructure you AD configuration to match what is described at this older Microsoft link here: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/34981.active-directory-best-practices-for-internal-domain-and-network-names.aspx. And here is a slightly newer document showing the same thing: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2003/cc772970(v=ws.10). Thanks for the links - one of them I had looked already (as a Google search pointed to it). My public domain name has a - {dash} in it, and apparently my old ass NAS does not like that. I have tried and tried to get it to recognize the domain-name that I first setup as ad.{mypublicdomain} - even a chat session with them for over an hour (nothing worked - they plan no updates to it. It also only does CIFSv1/SMBv1 - FTP (no sFTP) and NFS (but only to Linux boxes) - and some form of iSCSI. I have over 6TB of files and stuff on there, and they "SEAGATE" is not even willing to 'help' me with another NAS to replace it. One of my IT buddies said I should use {mypublicdomain}.loc for my AD/DS...but still going to resolve the - {dash} in there unless I remove it completely. I have considered creating (renaming my public-facing-domain) as only HomeAssistant uses it (well their app on my phone and the ALEXA and GOOGLE links do too). My older post you referenced was assuming the network was IPv4 only with no IPv6 in use. You want to use IPv6, but your ISP is not guaranteeing you a static assignment (they use prefix delegation which means the IPv6 space might change unexpectedly). That's going to be an issue unless you use both ULA and GUA IPv6 addresses. My post also assumed that your Active Directory domain was never going to be accessed from outside. Sounds like that is not what you intend as you mentioned somewhere up above about using some type of home automation with LDAP authentication I believe (unless I'm confusing this thread with another one). Pretty much what I am going to. Every guide that I have read says not to DISABLE the IPv6 on a DC. I am going to leave it at its default settings and let pfSense take care of it. Same for DHCPv4 - going to only do DNS on AD/DS and I am guessing that pfSense is RESOLVER with the FORWARDING option turned on. I would also need a Domain Override setup to point to AD/DS name and IPv4 address as well. Still trying to grasp the REV LOOKUP (setup in pfSense) thing and the HOST OVERRIDE too. The LDAP stuff that I want to do is not really for Home Automation, per se. I do have HomeAssisitant - what I want to do is sign-ins to the various parts with LDAP credentials so that I do not have to keep up with (currently 22) separate login accounts. All of that stuff is 'inside' my pfSense Firewall - only Alexa and Google can access from outside and their app. I got that working, and hoping that I do not have to go through that again. WHEW!!!
