Description

Dutch XS4All provider requires IPv6 DHCP inside PPPoE tunnel
Now the DHCP request is going over the physical interface (em0 for me) and it is not getting answered.

[2.1-RC0][admin@firewall.familievink.nl]/var/etc(6): /usr/local/sbin/dhcp6c -f -d -D -c /var/etc/dhcp6c_wan.conf -p /var/run/dhcp6c_pppoe0.pid *em0*

Here it gets stuck.

After changing the interface to pppoe0 in the config file and at the dhcp6c command line the request gets answered.

As you can see the prefix delegation is working but the DHCP server is not offering an IP address. This is indeed according the specifications of XS4all.
The DHCP client keeps trying to get an address and IPv6 will never get active.
The wan configuration has a check box for only requesting the PD and not the IA but this is not working. Ater checking the box and committing the change the box returns unchecked.
Also the change is not reflected in the config file, so I decided to change the config file by hand.

After changing the dhcp6c_wan.conf the DHCP process is working

working dhcp6c_wan.conf:

interface pppoe0 {
        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 pd 0 {
};

The only things that is left is changing the IPv6 default gateway interface which was pointing to em0 to use pppoe0 and IPv6 runs again.

Checkbox in the wan interface configuration to only request PD is not working
DHCPv6 should use pppoe interface instead of physical interface
ipv6 default route should point to pppoe interface
radvd is not starting automatically

This certainly won't fix all the sequence of problems reported here. Those who use this, please test with latest snapshots from about Sun Jul 21 21:46:29 onwards and report how far things work now and what things are still not implemented/working.
