This feels like a slightly odd way to do things. If you want a static ip6, why don't you create ifconfig.awge and put in inet6 2001:x:x:x/64 Also, why don't you want RS? but that's your call. I wonder if defaultroute6 doest't work because the interface is not yet up. You are, I think, relying on dhcpcd enumerating interfaces, bringing them up, and trying to configure them. And that I bet runs after networking /etc/rc.d $ rcorder *|egrep 'network|dhcp' network dhcpcd dhcpd dhcpd6 You should also be able to put in an ifconfig.awge0 that has (not tested!): !/sbin/route add -inet6 default fe80::foo after "up" and "inet6".
