Description

I have an openvpn tunnel to a remote server which works correctly for IPv4 traffic but not for IPv6. When the remote sends IPv6 traffic over the tunnel I can see (via traceroute) that the openvpn packets arrive on the wan interface but I don't see them arrive on the tun interface (ovpnc2).

When I traceroute6 a remote IPv6 address on the pfsense box the packets go out the WAN (not ovpnc2). When I do any IPv6 to the remote from the LAN side I get "No route to host". The static route to the destination is clearly in the route table so I can see no reason why pfsense would route that traffic to 'default' or why it would send back 'no route to host' to LAN devices.

I am quite sure this used to work (~3-4 months ago) and the only change has been to pfsense (updating to latest RC0 snapshot). I've tried 'pfctl -d' but that didn't make any difference.

I'm running:
2.1-RC0 (amd64)
built on Sat Jun 8 09:20:03 EDT 2013
FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p8

The remote server is CentOS release 6.4 running OpenVPN 2.3.2
