        Also noteworthy that we didn't just make the change locally, it's been submitted upstream to FreeBSD as well and will be in future releases there, so we don't have to worry about this breaking again in the future:

          @jimp Good choice, as the issue affects FreeBSD too, due to the way rtsold was originally coded in the OS. Rtsold worked before, because sometimes even coding errors produce the intended(?) outcome by mere luck.

            On previous versions of pfSense we had a local patch to rtsold that ended up running the script for any flag combination but it looks like that may not have been intentional. So yes, it was working before but completely by accident.

            But now it's working deliberately without a local only change. :-)

              Alright, the latest update simply broke IPv6 completely. I am not getting any IPv6 address at all, not just a gateway issue

                That is likely unrelated. I tested the changes for this and I could reproduce it before the fix and it was working OK after. If there is a change in behavior it's probably not from this change specifically. Start a fresh thread and gather info there to debug it.
