IPv6

Hi there,

I want to configure my m0n0wall appliance (runs on an ESX Server) as a dual stack IPv4/IPv6 firewall (IPv4 works).
I got a /48 Range from my ISP. The router address is 2001:xxxx:yyyy::1/48.

So I set for the LAN interface the address 2001:xxxx:yyyy::3 and for the WAN interface 2001:xxxx:yyyy::2 with the router address as gateway. But I can't ping the gateway on the WAN interface, and also I can't ping the WAN interface from the LAN interface. So I tried to set a /64 subnet on the LAN interface, but no success. I had allowed any protocols from any source to any destination in the IPv6 firewall rules.

If I tried it with a BackTrack VM on the ESX WAN interface, I had no problem to ping the router.

Can someone give me a hint how to solve my problem?

Are you trying to assign both the LAN and WAN interfaces to be in the same network? If so, that will not work.

thx for the hint. I try to use IPv6 Subnets...
