IPv6 on WAN is not getting address

dear all

I have istalled SF 19 on my hyper-v W16 server. 3 virtual switches - one is connected directly with the servers NIC - for WAN.

My ISP provides IP addresses with DHCP. IPv4 - everything is OK. IPv6 should get local link address for WAN and with prefix delegation it gives real 2001:7d0 / 56 adresses

But nothing is obtained from the ISP - no local link, no address block for PD. At the same time when I look under DNS IPv6 - I see that 2 IPv6 adresses of their DNS servers are obtained.. I haven't found any other place to configure IPv6 options other than under Network

What am I doing wrong?

With best

Hannes

Hi,

please check with yourISP which method they use to assign IPv6 addresses, because XG does not support all methods. You might need to get static IPv6 address and configure your XG that way.

Hi

This info is given by Telia Estonia:

IPv6

For internet interface will be given IPv6 address with the help of the Prefix Delegation (PD) from Telia EE address pool 2001:7d0 / 56.

WAN interface will not given IPv6 address, local link address will be used (unnumbered WAN)

IPv6 routing info comes from Routing Advertisment (RA)

PD ja DNS server aadresses will be sent through DHCPv6

I used wireshark and saw that local link was given to my FW WAN, but when I enter this address mmanually, SFW says that local link cannot be the WAN address

So it seems that I have to find another similar software for my home firewalling

At this stage XG does not use PD. Local link can only be a gateway. You need 2001:7d0:: address range.
