Description

My ISP uses PPPoE+DHCPv6 to provide dual-stack capabilities. After redialing, the IPV6 prefix will change.
After the PD of the WAN interface was changed, pfsense was not correctly sending out router advertisements to list the previous IP address as non-preferred.
This will cause the Windows machine IPv6 under pfsense to be unable to connect to the Internet.
The attached file is the content of the router advertisement packet captured by Wireshark.
OpenWRT can handle this problem correctly.
It will invalidate the previous prefix and tell the client to use the new prefix, but pfsense does not tell the client that the previous prefix lifecycle has ended.
As a result, the newly sent prefix from pfsense is not listed as the preferred prefix, and Windows will continue to use the expired prefix.
Then I can't connect to the internet using ipv6.

After the PD update, Windows did not use 240e:38d:8dd8:a000 as the first choice, but continued to use the previous 240e:38d:88cc:5700.
