      it only has to be put together by some talented folks

      so what you want is pfsense to register dhcpv6 entries into some ddns service.

      That would be a feature request or bounty..

      What about clients that are using SLAAC? ;)

        I don't think that DDNS and SLAAC are going well together and they don't have to. ;)

        Kinda off-topic: I run a teamspeak server where only a few chosen ones are allowed to join and I use their DDNS addresses in an alias for that. But I just saw in the log that Teamspeak on Windows will use the Temporary IPv6 Address too, so no chance to solve that via DDNS.
        IPv4 for the win, long live NAT. ๐Ÿ˜ฐ

          These are going to used more often then not for outbound connections. Its the whole privacy thing of IPv6 ;) hehehe

          If your wanting to lock down which IPv6s can talk to your service, its prob best to get their /64 prefix vs a specific IP. And allow the whole prefix. But problem is with many an ISP is these prefixes change all the time.

            @johnpoz Yes, that is the case with IPv4 and IPv6 here and it will stay like that I am sure.
            And I will not go out and get everyone a HE-tunnel. ๐Ÿ˜
