Description

When the WAN interface is set to "request only an IPv6 prefix" (which is required by some ISPs), no IPv6 address is assigned to the WAN interface other than a link local address. This results in needing to use the LAN IP for requests such as VPN connections from the WAN, and VPN rules need to be manually added.

Would it be possible to have PFsense assign an address from the prefix to the WAN interface in "request only an IPv6 prefix" mode?
