Hi Eric--
First note that I'm a different Bruce than the chap who's been helping
thus far. :-)
BTW, use "ndp -a" to see this.
Your setup is not *too* different from what I have at home in terms of
network topology and what you hope to accomplish. (I have a Soekris
net4801 run 6.2-STABLE and acting as a filtering bridge between an
IPv4
/29 and the rest of the Internet, and also terminating a gif(4) tunnel
for IPv6.)
This is so that I don't have to do routing on my firewall. I have a
IPv4 /28 network, so a limited number of IP addresses, this saves one
of those. This system is filtering traffic with PF. That's really
the only reason for the bridging. Also, it does allow me to do
traffic shaping and bandwidth monitoring. This bridging stuff
really, as you said, has nothing to do with my IPv6 configuration
issues.
I think the biggest difference between your network and mine is that
rather than using options BRIDGE I'm using the if_bridge(4) driver
between my "inside" and "outside" network interfaces. The physical
interfaces in the bridge are unnumbered and the if_bridge
pseudo_interface has IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
The main reason for doing this is that I've seen that bridge(4) can
have
difficulty determining the correct physical interface to use for
packets
that originate on the bridging host. I recall having this problem
with
pfnat. (I don't remember the exact details, but I did some
postings to
the m0n0wall mailing lists on this topic some time ago...your favorite
search engine can probably help find these messages.)
I wonder if the problem I've seen with bridge(4) might be related to
your IPv6 problems (since you're terminating the tunnel on your
firewall). If so, maybe switching to if_bridge(4) as I've described
above might help things.
In any case, good luck!
Bruce! Thanks for all the help! That did the trick! Only one more
thing that's holding me up.
On my gateway, I've got 2001:4980:1:111::145/64 as the primary IP
address. In addition, I've got 2001:4980:1:111::1/128 as an alias.
I can ping/connect to the xxx:145 address, but not the xxx:1
address. What did I configure wrong? Here's the output of netstat -
