Re: [brlug-general] Cox Residential and IPv6

Glad it's working... been a while since I looked at pfsense.  Forgot it was
based on FreeBSD.  I might have to consider it next time I change my router
out... I'd like to go to a lower power system some day.

Color me embarrassed. All these open browser windows for 
configuring/testing IPv6 have been open for months and I hadn't done 
anything in awhile.


Google-Foo served up this link from back in November when I tried 
again:  https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=102339.0


Follow directions, add an outbound IPv6 LAN-->WAN outbound rule and here 
I am:


*Good news!*Your current configuration will continue to work as web 
sites enable IPv6.


	Your DNS server (possibly run by your ISP) appears to have IPv6 
Internet access.


Your readiness score
10/10 	for your IPv6 stability and readiness, when publishers are forced 
to go IPv6 only

That was for the WAN connection. Google around for the wide dhcp 
package and there are some howto docs out there.  I had to cobble

For the internal network, I chose to support auto config so that all

larger than a /64, but I gave up on getting that to work.  Seemed like

I ran into a number of issues getting it set up... and it's a bit hazy 
now because it's been a while and I didn't keep good notes.  But, if 
you need further info, I can look on my running system and let you

Support told me a few weeks ago it's been deployed in our area.

I've learned that I get the best tech support from them on Sunday
so today I hit them up in web chat for instructions or methods
they use. Anything to get me started.

They want me to call their Home Networking Group. Since I'd rather
pull out my fingernails than try to explain how I'm running a
PfSense box with static and dynamic VPNs, a handful of creative
rules, Macs, Linux (see there's a link in here somewhere to the
list) and Windows, plus everything else I can think of to make
life harder for them, I'm hoping someone else has done this before
and is willing to share.

I'm on Comcast... YMMV.  I have a debian box that is running as my router.
I couldn't get v6 to work with comcast with the ISC client.   I had to
install the wide-dhcpv6-client package and go from there.  That was for the
WAN connection.  Google around for the wide dhcp package and there are some
howto docs out there.  I had to cobble together some scripts to get it all
to work.

For the internal network, I chose to support auto config so that all my

debian router.  Comcast supposedly will delegate larger than a /64, but I
gave up on getting that to work.  Seemed like the route wasn't getting set

[brlug-general] Cox Residential and IPv6

2016-01-24 Thread Keith Stokes 
Has anyone worked with Cox Residential in BR/Laf/NO on IPv6? Support 
told me a few weeks ago it's been deployed in our area.


I've learned that I get the best tech support from them on Sunday so 
today I hit them up in web chat for instructions or methods they use. 
Anything to get me started.


They want me to call their Home Networking Group. Since I'd rather pull 
out my fingernails than try to explain how I'm running a PfSense box 
with static and dynamic VPNs, a handful of creative rules, Macs, Linux 
(see there's a link in here somewhere to the list) and Windows, plus 
everything else I can think of to make life harder for them, I'm hoping 
someone else has done this before and is willing to share.
