      I'm attempting to set up the Router Advertisements for my IPv6 network and when I try to input the IPv6 address in the DNS configuration, it give the "Please match the requested format" dialog and will not let me save.

      I'm inputting the address as xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::3

      Is there a format I'm missing or is this a bug?

      I appreciate any help that can be provided.

        Solved my own issue.  I'm using chrome under archlinux and it doesn't want to work, but it works fine when I switched to firefox.

        :-\

          It's been brought up in several places on the forum already. It's actually a Chrome bug.

          You can use the System Patches package to apply https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/pfsense/pfsense/pull/3127.patch which will allow the validation to work with the latest Chrome. The Chrome regex parser has a bug in that it does not allow escaped characters inside a list, even though it is a valid – but not required -- regex expression.
