Complete noob and ia-pd configuration.

  • S

    So, near as I can understand it, my one ISP hands out a /56 prefix, then its up to the router (pfsense box in my case) to delegate the addresses to other devices inside the LAN.

    I've had to custom create a dhcp6c_wan.conf which mostly works, except it keeps looping.

    This is my config

    interface em0_vlan3 {
        send ia-pd 0;
       request domain-name-servers;
       request domain-name;
       script "/var/etc/dhcp6c_wan_script.sh"; # we'd like some nameservers please
};

id-assoc pd 0 {
        prefix-interface em0_vlan5 {
        sla-id 0;
        sla-len 0;
        };
};

    When I run /usr/local/sbin/dhcp6c -dDf -c /var/etc/dhcp6c_wan.conf -p /var/run/dhcp6c.pid em0_vlan3

    It seems to get a prefix, but it keeps looping

^C

    So it grabs the prefix of 2001:56a:f3b1:2e00::/56 but then just keeps looping. I tried manually assigning an address of 2001:56a:f3b1:2e00::1 to the appropriate WAN interface, but was unable to ping6/traceroute6 from the PFSense box itself.

    Any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated.

    So,

    I modified my config slightly

    
interface em0_vlan3 {
        send ia-pd 1;
        request domain-name-servers;
        request domain-name;
        script "/var/etc/dhcp6c_wan_script.sh"; # we'd like some nameservers please
};

id-assoc pd 1 {
        prefix-interface em0_vlan5 {
#        sla-id 1;
#       sla-len 56;
        };
};

    now this happens

    so em0_vlan5 now gets assigned       
    inet6 2001:56a:f3a8:a700:20c:29ff:fe20:fd1c prefixlen 56

    however, if I try to ping

    ping6 google.ca
PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) 2001:56a:f3a8:a700:20c:29ff:fe20:fd1c --> 2607:f8b0:400a:805::100f
ping6: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping6: wrote google.ca 16 chars, ret=-1

    but the routing table looks good

    [2.2.4-RELEASE][root@pfsense.wtf.local]/root: route -6 get google.ca
   route to: sea15s01-in-x03.1e100.net
destination: default
       mask: default
    gateway: node-1w7jra22wzwwdjzfq1cmmcqo0.ipv6.telus.net
        fib: 0
  interface: em0_vlan3
      flags: <up,gateway,done,static>recvpipe  sendpipe  ssthresh  rtt,msec    mtu        weight    expire
       0         0         0         0      1500         1         0</up,gateway,done,static>

    =\

  • S

    So with this config file

    interface em0_vlan3 {
#       information-only;
        send ia-pd 1;
        request domain-name-servers;
        request domain-name;
        script "/var/etc/dhcp6c_wan_script.sh"; # we'd like some nameservers please
};

id-assoc pd 1 {
        prefix-interface em0_vlan5 {
        sla-id 1;
        sla-len 0;
        };

};

    It works. I get functional IPV6 on my router, however pfsense doesn't seem to want to let me advertise this to clients on my lan.

    Also, there seems to be no choices/combination of options to do PD on a normal WAN interface. in the 2.2.5 changelog, it said IA-PD changes were made for PPPoE users.
