      Update to this issue: i can now pull IP6 addresses with a windows machine and a CentOS machine, but pfsense still wont get an address.

        There's some "no such file or directory" entries in your log.

        One of them is related to "/usr/local/etc/dhcp6c.conf", the config file of the DHCP6 service. Well, being the config file, you can change DHCP6 configuration and save it? This way, a new config file can be created and the error is gone. Still need to correctly configure it, tough.

        Another one is related to "/usr/local/etc/dhcp6cctlkey", probably some key file used by DHCP6. You can check the DHCP6 configuration about this key file. But, logically, if the DHCP6 configuration file is missing, so the correct path to the certificate will be missing too.

        I don't know, maybe these clues help you. :)

          Why not start with the exact same command line that pfSense would use and add the debug and just foreground flags to it?

          
/usr/local/sbin/dhcp6c -d -c /var/etc/dhcp6c_wan.conf -p /var/run/dhcp6c_re0.pid em1 -f -D

          (Note the non-default location of the config file.)

            Thanks for the reply.

            I ran that command and get the following results:

            Here is some additional details that might be of help that i got from an employee of Google Fiber:

            The delegated prefix can be requested using standard DHCPv6 requests, for example the dhclient program supports this with the -P flag. The delegated prefix returned is currently a /56, which could change, but will always be at least a /64. Typically you would request both an IA (to program into the wan side) and a DP to be used for routing to your internal network, you can request both the IA and DP in a single DHCPv6 request; for example with dhclient you would pass both the -N and -P flags.

            Next-hop/gateway can be attained from the Router Advertisements.

            I also tried on a pfsense 2.2 snapshot, that seemed to have the same issue as pfsense 2.1.3

              Try running a packet trace on the WAN interface. You'll want to look for ICMP6 traffic, as well as UDP6 on port 546 and 547.

                Doesn't seem like i am getting anything on the packet capture.

                  Good news / bad news time.

                  The good news is, I have IPv6 support working.

                  The bad news is, I'm probably going to have to scrap my pfSense/Watchguard box.  I'm still having way too many problems with the IPTV aspect of this, and now the box is having some weird crashing issues.  (I've explained in a bit more detail down at the end of this post)

                  Per Google, they only allow one MAC address per subscriber to get a /56 IPv6 allocation.  The timeout on this is about 1 hour.  So you'll need to disconnect your GFNB if it's still hooked up.  You can connect the pfSense box right away and just use the IPv4 connectivity until the IPv6 lease timeout passes.

                  The first thing I did was to edit /var/etc/dhcp6c_wan.conf.  You need to enable the option for rapid-commit.  This lets the client exchange DHCP info with only 2 packets instead of 4.  I think this is the most critical thing that was missing.  Here's my complete dhcp6c_wan.conf file:

                  
interface em0 {
    send ia-na 0;   # request stateful address
	send ia-pd 0;	# request prefix delegation
	send rapid-commit;
	request domain-name-servers;
	request domain-name;
	script "/var/etc/dhcp6c_wan_script.sh"; # we'd like some nameservers please
};
id-assoc na 0 { };
id-assoc pd 0 {
	prefix-interface em1 {
		sla-id 0;
		sla-len 8;
	};
};

                  The only line I had to add was 'send rapid-commit'.

                  Once the 1 hour timer was up, I ran this from the shell:

                  /usr/local/sbin/dhcp6c -d -c /var/etc/dhcp6c_wan.conf -p /var/run/dhcp6c_re0.pid -f -D em0

                  You should see debug output showing that your WAN interface (em0 in my case) received both an IA-NA (non-temporary IPv6 address for the WAN interface itself) and an IA-PD (the /56 prefix assigned by Google)

                  Now go into the GUI, and go to Interfaces > WAN.  Under 'DHCP6 client configuration' set the 'prefix delegation size' dropdown to 56.  Leave the other IPv6 boxes unchecked and apply your settings.

                  Next, go to Interfaces > LAN.

                  Under IPv6 config type, change it to 'track interface'.  That'll enable some new IPv6 options further down the page. Set the 'track interface' dropdown to WAN, and set the 'IPv6 prefix ID' to 0.  Apply the changes.

                  You should see something like the following in the GUI or shell output:

                  
em0: flags=8843 <up,broadcast,running,simplex,multicast>metric 0 mtu 1500

                  Release and renew the interface on your PC and you should have routable IPv6 addresses.  I tested against test-ipv6.com and got a score of 10/10.

                  I'd like to pass along one warning though.  I originally started this with a stable IPv4 + IGMP setup. (Albeit with flaky IPTV).  Once I started messing with the dhcp6c_wan.conf file, I started having 'fatal trap 12' crashes.  To the point where the box would crash as soon as I brought up the LAN interface, while the WAN was unplugged.  I started swapping RAM and testing hardware and everything came up clean.  So I completely re-imaged the CF card with a fresh copy of 2.1.3-release.

                  From there, I rebuilt everything from scratch without any problems or crashes all the way up through the successful IPv6 compliance tests.  However, IPTV does not work with IPv6 alone.  Or at least I wasn't able to figure out how to make it work in my testing.  Anyway, I went through Atlantisman's pfSense guide and rebuilt all of the IPv4 + IGMP stuff.  Next time I rebooted my Storage Box, my pfSense box crashed again.  By this time I'd had enough and just switched everything back to the Google hardware.

                  Between the IGMP problems and this new crashing issue, I think I'm done.  I've got the crash console output if anyone wants to go down that road.

                    Yeah, for a while now i have had my IPTV service split off my main network and still using the Network Box, pfsense appears to be great at handling every besides the IPTV service.

                    I have tried doing what you said for the IP6 and get the following:

                    It gets an address, but is not able to assign it for some reason.

                      This doesn't make any sense. I've had this working on both my pfSense box and my Adtran router, and both had rapid-commit (solicit < reply) enabled.  But some of my own pfSense debugs, and packet capture info from the GFNB, make it look like normal-commit (solicit < advertise > request < reply) is being used.

                      Here's my debug from the successful DHCP6 pull on my pfSense box.  Hopefully it helps.

                      I noticed your box isn't calling /var/etc/dhcp6c_wan_script.sh.  That's not something I've touched at all.  It was included and called by default as part of my dhcp6c_wan.conf file.

                        So i was playing with MikroTik RotuerOS and it picks up and distributes ip6 address right away, only config needed is enabling ip6.

                        What is different about how RouterOS is requesting the address vs. pfsense?
