      I am attempting to configure an OpenVPN instance using purely IPv6 inside the tunnel, however i am hitting the following error in the UI:

      "The field IPv4 Tunnel network is required."

      It seems that the pfsense ui does not allow a vpn to be created without legacy ipv4 addressing, is this an inherent limitation of openvpn or a bug in the UI?

      By using ipv6 on the vpn i can ensure that clients don't suffer from address conflicts, an extremely common occurrence with ipv4.
