4. Dhcp6c dies silently

Dhcp6c dies silently

  • D

    I have an SG-2220 running current PFsense, and recently upgraded to gigabit cable Internet service with my provider (Midco). Since I did so, I've had a problem with IPv6 connectivity: Specifically that about every 24 hours, 'dhcp6c' silently dies. IPv6 works fine before its death, and if I manually restart it, the external interface takes an IPv6 address just fine, but approximately once every 24 hours, 'dhcp6c' just dies. Nothing in the log. I've turned on debug output for 'dhcp6c' and nothing is logged at all.

    The command I'm running to start 'dhcp6c' myself (taken from the process as originally launched by PFsense) is:

    /usr/local/sbin/dhcp6c -D -n -c /var/etc/dhcp6c_wan.conf -p /var/run/dhcp6c_igb0.pid igb0

    This is the complete output from when I launched it yesterday; the output ends where it does because there was nothing more from this process after it started, until I had to manually relaunch it this morning to reacquire my IPv6 address.
