Unable to enter IPv6 address in NPT rules on firewall_nat_npt_edit.php
-
Hello everyone, So I've got myself a multi homed situation I'm trying to sort out.
I have had a /48 address allocated to me from Hurricane Electric "HE/48"
I have a /60 provided by ISP1 "ISP1/60"
And i have a /48 provided by ISP2 "ISP2/48"
So i'm trying to figure out my NPT rules for this. I've already assigned the "HE/48" internally and i've been able to get the "ISP2/48" setup with NPT working.
But i haven't been able to enter a rule for the /60 in the NPT page.I'm getting a "Please match the requested format" error from the webpage similar to https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=107491.0
I've tried adjusting all the rules to have a /60 subnet mapping since that seems more sane but I still get the "Please match the requested format"
Tested with 2.3.1-RELEASE-p5

Getting "Please match the requested format" means you're not inputting a valid IPv6 subnet. It needs to end with :: and otherwise be a valid IPv6 subnet.

I've tried that.
Example: 2001:B470:3051:E010::
Select /60
"Please match the requested format"

Use lower-case letters.
Technically IPv6 is case-insensitive, but RFC specifies they must be in lower case.

For improved usability I would suggest noting that either in the description or error message that pops up.
