Hi,

I'm running IPv6 on my LAN interface and I'm experiencing some
weird IPv6 Router advertisement issues. When I look at at Router
Advertisement Daemon configuration, only the prefix and the DNS
domain should be sent:

# Automatically Generated, do not edit
# Generated config for dhcp6 delegation from wan on lan
interface em0 {
        AdvSendAdvert on;
        MinRtrAdvInterval 3;
        MaxRtrAdvInterval 10;
        AdvLinkMTU 1500;
        AdvOtherConfigFlag on;
                prefix 2a02:168:9800::/64 {
                AdvOnLink on;
                AdvAutonomous on;
                AdvRouterAddr on;
        };
        DNSSL lan.dogan.ch { }

Unfortunately, a Windows 7 client configures the pfsense address
as the DNS server (sorry, it's in German):

And the router advirtesement package looks fine so far:

10:47:55.267792 IP6 (hlim 255, next-header ICMPv6 (58) payload length: 88) 
fe80::1:1 > ff02::1: [icmp6 sum ok] ICMP6, router advertisement, length 88

          prefix info option (3), length 32 (4): xxxx:xxx:xxxx::/64, Flags

            0x0010:  0263 6800 0000
          mtu option (5), length 8 (1):  1500
            0x0000:  0000 0000 05dc
          source link-address option (1), length 8 (1): 00:0c:29:87:1d:76
            0x0000:  000c 2987 1d76

I'm wondering now, why the pfsense router address is set as a DNS
server, while there is no DNS forwarder or DNS resolver running
there. I've also noticed, that if I specify IPv6 DNS server
addresses for pfsense, they are set in the radv.conf, but the
client (Windows 7 and Android 5.1.1) are trying to use the
default gateway as a DNS server.

Well, I think this behaviour isn't right and probably there is
something wrong here.
