I wanted to start moving away from my crappy ISP cable-modem/router/firewall/wireless-AP and have been doing so for a while now. It has been determined that if I call up my ISP they can turn the modem into bridge mode thereby making it, for all-intents-and-purposes a dumb modem and my pfsense box can take over.
Until that happens I have disabled all routing as best as I can tell on the modem, no firewall, no wireless, no DHCP, and am just using DMZ to forward traffic to the pfsense box's WAN interface.
The current flow is as follows:
WWW -> cable modem DMZ (ipv4 and ipv6 addresses per the mgmt interface) -> 192.168.0.2 -> pfsense wan1 interface static IP -> lan etc etc
There are options on the WAN interface in the pfsense UI to setup IPV6 but it seems the DHCPv6 service seems to require a static ipv6 interface ... and this is where I am stuck I seem to be going around in circles.
I can attach or post any and all screenshots or other helpful data if needed.
