IPv6 not working (ISP: Ziggo)
-
Hi,
I've found the following tutorial on the internet for enable IPv6 on a PFsense with Ziggo as ISP: https://hezik.nl/2021/configure-ipv6-for-ziggo-bridge-modems-on-pfsense/
But now IPv6 traffic looks to be blocked on the firewall:
My laptop had a ipv6 address now, but its not able to ping6 anything..
My firewall rules should allow the ipv6 traffic:
What am I missing here?
Thank you in advance! :-)

The FDxx... address range is private so it's not going anywhere on the internet no matter how hard you try. FE80 is link local. I don't see in your screenshot any internet routable IPV6 addresses being blocked.
If you are using Windows computers, open a command prompt (type CMD on the start menu search box) and type "ipconfig /all" to see what IP addresses your computer is getting. You should have multiple IPV6 addresses, not just the link local and the private FD.
You would have had to setup how IPV6 addressing is accomplished via router advertisements under SERVICES/DHCP6 SERVER AND RA. Choose ROUTER ADVERTISEMENTS and set the ROUTER MODE to either UNMANAGED or SLAAC. I set mine to SLAAC and input my two DNS servers in the DHCP6SERVER section, so that my devices get my DNS server addresses while also setting their own IPV6 addresses automatically without using DHCP6. UNMANAGED should work if you don't have DNS server addresses you wish to push to the clients. But in the end, your clients need to have Internet routable IPs, not just ULA (unique local FC/FD) addresses.
