        Please include what you can from the tunnelbroker config.  Thanks.

            Those are all the steps executed like the guide suggests.  Did I miss something?

            Yes I didnt complete the DHCP part in this iteration.  I just want to get IPv6 functionality from pfSense before I add clients to the mix.

              Let me look at it.  In the meantime you might as well go request a /48 in case it takes a few minutes.  You'll need it for your LAN(s).  Unless all you'll ever have is the one LAN.

                  I assume IPV6 is enabled on pfsense at System: Advanced: Networking?

                      You need to create a gateway for 2001:470:1f0e:d8e::1

                      Then add an IPv6 static config to the OPT1 interface you assigned to the GIF tunnel.

                      Set it to 2001:470:1f0e:d8e::2/64 with the gateway you just created as the upstream gateway.

                        You don't want it on the LAN?

                        Is your client ipv4 address in HE matching your WAN IP?

                        I gave /64 to each physical interface (except WAN) and each openvpn interface for myself.

                          I dont understand what you mean by creating a Gateway?  Are you talking about editing the gateway address for the existing 'HEIPV6_TUNNELV6' gateway?

                          Also the created interface for the tunnel is 'heIPv6' not opt1, are you referring to something else?

                            I didn't see you renamed it.  Yes, assign the IPv6 static config to your HeIPv6 interface.

                                    We just need to get the tunnel and it's assigned interface up so he can ping his ::1 at hurricane.  Then we can dole out /64s out of his shiny new /48 to his local interfaces.

                                            That shouldn't be complaining.

                                            Is the tunnel up?  Can you ping6 your ::1?  It'll only work from pfSense itself.
