Take note that iOS and Android dislike DHCPv6 Server, your phone wont received IPv6, it's advisable to use NDP instead

What is NDP ?
*
is like DHCP, either randomly generated or using EUI64 (MAC Address as IPv6 Address)

IPv6 has 2 type to hand out Address:
1. DHCPv6
2. NDP

DHCPv6 akin to IPv4 DHCP. Router are responsible to giving out address that you set.

NDP is different. Device ask router prefix and set own address either Randomly or EUI64.

EUI64 is Extended Unique Identifier, it using device MAC Address as IPv6 Address, good for Device Service like Printer & Server, NDP play well with EUI64, this way you can have Static IPv6

Plus, EUI64 + Link Local IPv6 will make your life easier, no matter what router/switch you choose or change, you still can connect without set anything.

I been using EUI64 + Link Local IPv6 on DBKL HP Printer, when they move other place, no need to configure even on new Router/Switch

EUI64 like Pendrive, Plug n Play.

I use IPv6 to put some hexspeak:

CODE

IPv6 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 2001:d08:e6:7a1b:dead:daff:fee1:b00b(Preferred)

My Server Address: [2001:d08:e6:7a1b:dead:daff:feed:f00d]:8080

sorry, a bit confused. i'm using pfsense fyi.

has the settings to enable ipv6 for tmnut unifi been updated from this article?
https://advanxer.com/blog/2015/03/configuri...on-pfsense/amp/
in the article they mention using dhcpv6, but comments here seem to allude that this is no longer the recommended setting?  confused.gif

IPv6 PPPoE has 2 type of Address

1. PPPoE Interface Address (/128)
This address is use for Router only

2. Prefix Address
This address for LAN use, it hand out address prefix (2001:a:b:c:smile.gif and prefix length (/64)

for PPPoE, must use DHCPv6 to obtain:
1. Interface Address
2. Address Prefix
3. Prefix Length

For LAN IPv6 distribution, use NDP

if you have /60 - /48 Prefix Length, then you can use DHCPv6 Server to hand out LAN IPv6, this way you can have extended or more subnet's
