Re: Road Runner Wideband IPv6 - Largest Prefix Length said by AhnHEL:Does anyone know what is the largest prefix length that RR hands out. I can get a /64 and a /60 easily but when I get a /60 on my WAN, anything connected to the LAN doesnt get a IPv6 address causing it to fail any IPv6 test sites. Running pfSense as a router. I'm betting you'll probably have to specially configure radvd/DHCPv6 to recognize the other blocks and hand them out to other machines. Which may be a problem if the blocks aren't supposed to be permanently assigned to your account... |

Bayside, NY | Thanks for the reply.
You mean from the /60 i get for the LAN, setup static IP with DHCPv6 for all LAN interfaces?

| I get the following as options but I dont know which one applies for Router Advertisements.
Select the Operating Mode for the Router Advertisement (RA) Daemon. Use "Router Only" to only advertise this router, "Unmanaged" for Router Advertising with Stateless Autoconfig, "Managed" for assignment through (a) DHCPv6 Server, "Assisted" for DHCPv6 Server assignment combined with Stateless Autoconfig It is not required to activate this DHCPv6 server when set to "Managed", this can be another host on the network

| Maybe "managed" would work here. I haven't tried getting more than a /64, so I can't say for sure. :/ |

Bayside, NY | Thx for quick reply, I'll try this out later tonight and see how it goes. Changing interface options in regards to IPv6 requires a reboot so I need to wait until no one is on network.

It depends on the RA / DHCPv6 daemon implementation. Some are designed with a dynamic environment in mind so that the DHCPv6-PD client can hand down an allocation and they can assign /64's to each configured interface as appropriate. As in no hard coded addresses within the configuration of the daemon. |
