IPv6 works on LAN but not WAN/Firewall
-
Hi all,
Got an odd one (or just me being dumb). I've searched online but not really found anything to help and the fact the LAN works I don't want to risk breaking lol.
Provider is AT&T Fiber:
No gateway in-between, straight into ONT. 0 issues on v4, v6 0 issues on LAN. Just the firewall has issues with IT talking directly to v6Issues I can duplicate:
Package list never load unless I disable IPv6 in advanced tab
Using IPv6 only DNS fails
Pinging from WAN to IPv6 fails.
Updates can't be installed unless v6 is disabled
Pinging from SSH to v6 fails.
SSH just shows: PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) 2001:506:XXXXX --> 2607:f8b0:XXXXXWhat is odd is if I ping selecting LAN as the source on the firewall ping works.
So I suspect it's some sort of WAN or routing issue since overall v6 works for everything else. I'm not sure if I've got something set wrong or what??No other packages installed, no firewall rules blocking etc.
What am I missing? lol The fact everything else works boggles my mind.
WAN setup for v6 portions:
DHCP6
DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation size 60
Send IPv6 prefix hint
Do not wait for a RAReserved networks blocked
Nothing else is set
For LAN:
Set to track wan and IPv6 Prefix ID 1DHCPv6 Server & RA
Range: ::1000 - ::2000
Prefix Delegation Size: 64I've got tons of network experience but not tons as it relates to v6 since I've always been able to get it to work with other providers.
Anything look/sound wrong?
The WAN interface has:
IPv6 Link Local
fe80::8a96:XXXXXXXXXX
IPv6 Address
2001:506:XXXXXXXXXXX1
Subnet mask IPv6
128
Gateway IPv6
fe80::12e8:XXXXXXXXXLAN:
IPv6 Link Local
fe80::1:1%igb0
IPv6 Address
2600:1700:XXXXXXXXX
Subnet mask IPv6
64Thanks in advance!
So I found this, not sure if related... Am I understanding correct that in this true native bypass mode I am in that the IP assigned to WAN is non-routable and that's the issue? (had I saw this post I'd have replied to it instead of new, sorry!)
