pfSense IPv6

I'm currently merging our IPv6 changes to pfSense by hand so that I can commit our changes upstream once their migration from CVS to git is complete.

"With a thousand eyes, all bugs are shallow", they say. Sharing this code to the world will most likely uncover many bugs and make our code more stable. I just hope that with a thousand eyes, I won't receive a thousand flak from users in case I break something.

I'll probably break something. :)

UPDATE: As of January 16, 2011, development has been stopped. If you wish to continue development, please contact me (simoncpu at gmail.com) or post a bounty. Thanks! :)

(whoah, I realized that this post was made exactly 2 years ago lol)

Display IPv6 routes in Ubuntu

Unlike FreeBSD, Ubuntu doesn't show the IPv6 routes when netstat -rn is invoked. To display the routes, just do ip -6 route show dev <interface> or route -A inet6.

pfSense IPv6

Basic IPv6 support in pfSense is almost ready now. Although I expect that this still has some bugs, IPv6 support is already usable.

This is only available in the HEAD branch as of this moment. I may merge it to RELENG_1 as soon as it is deemed stable. You may download the daily snapshot at http://snapshots.pfsense.org/FreeBSD6/head/iso/.
