Today I tried to get IPv6 working on the WAN interface of my M0n0wall 1.32 installation so that I could access the WebGUI via IPv6 (I can currently access it via IPv4 just fine).
I enabled IPv6, statically configured the IPv6 addresses on both the WAN and LAN interfaces (even though I won't be using IPv6 on LAN, I read an earlier post that indicated you needed to configure IPv6 addresses on both interfaces in order for it to work on M0n0wall). While I would much prefer to have my WAN IPv6 address autoconfigured via SLAAC, that doesn't appear to be a supported option in the M0n0wall interface at the moment.
I'm running on a fully IPv6 enabled network here. Our routers broadcast RA's and all client systems autoconfigure their IPv6 addresses via SLAAC, so I disabled RA broadcast on both of my M0n0wall interfaces.
I also added in a blanket exception into the IPv6 firewall config to allow ALL inbound/outbound IPv6 traffic to pass on both the WAN and LAN interfaces.
However, for some reason IPv6 just doesn't seem to work. I can't ping6 anything successfully, not even ::1, on either the WAN or LAN interfaces. Any ideas about what I might be doing wrong or forgetting?
Thanks!
