Description

Hi,

I recently bought an SG1000 device for use on a corporate network.
I have had quite a bit of experience with pfSense before and am having trouble getting DHCPv6 and SLAAC to work on the SG1000.

As standard, when setting up DHCPv6+RA on a LAN you can input the DHCPv6 ranges and set the RA flags to assisted to get local devices to be allocated IPv6 addresses within a routed subnet. However, on the SG1000, no local LAN devices are being given any IPv6 addresses.

The LAN address on the SG1000 has an IPv6 address set to [routed_subnet]::1/64. The DHCPv6 and router advertisements then simply work off that /64 subnet. However, on closer examination of the log files the DHCPv4 server seems to work absolutely fine, but there is never any queries or entries for the DHCPv6 server. It is consistently stuck in a listening state. Have mirrored the exact setup with other pfSense devices and the problems do not occur.

Is there any nuances that need to be addressed in the SG1000? Would appreciate it if someone could try to reproduce this issue.

James

P.S. I have attached the DHCP log file for your perusal. My public IPv6 range has been replaced for the string "ROUTED_IPv6_BLOCK".
