No IPv6 DHCP6 Request on WAN

[admins]

Hi all
I've configured my WAN on ix0 with DHCP6. My provider is saying, that he didn't receive any dhcp6 request.
PFSense. IPv6 is activated on networking.
How could I check if dhcp6 is sending an request?

thx

Do a packet capture on ICMP6 on the WAN interface. However, it might be difficult to use the pfSense Packet Capture at that time, so you'd need a managed switch, with port mirroring, between the firewall and modem. You'd then use a computer running Wireshark to capture the packets. I assume your modem is in bridge mode, not gateway.
