Jails, IPv6 and port blocking

Hi all,
So this time, I'll expose the whole issue with my setup (a bit tricky, so sit back ;)).
I have a server that sits in an OVH datacenter (kimsufi) and that has one IPv4 address and an IPv6 /64 (which is pretty terrible, I know it). So, I sign up for a free IPv6 tunnel at HurricaneElectric and get an IPv6 /48. Yay!
However, bad news: this IPv6 tunnel blocks all IRC ports (in order to stall bots requesting tunnels and abuse IRC servers). So my idea is: create a jail for irc/znc that will connect to freenode using one adress provided by OVH and perhaps listen on one address provided by HE.
Here is my server setup:
  • I use pf to do the firewalling
  • I'd like my ZNC jail to use one or both of the following two addresses:
    • 2001:41d0:e:10a7::7a:6e63
    • 2001:470:7a83:6f74::7a:6e63
  • I use loopbacks interface for my jails. Namely, the IPv6 address provided by HE go there. I give one IPv4 and one IPv6 to my jails, in general
    Code:

  • OVH IPv6 setup sucks, so I don't know what the real address of my OVH GW is:
    • 2001:41d0:e:10ff:ff:ff:ff:ff (note that it is not in my /64)
    • fe80::1ee6:c7ff:fe52:740%em0
I hope I gave all relevant information. I have no preference for anything (I just want my jail to work and allow clients to connect to ZNC), so suggest anything that might work!

At the moment, I have my ZNC jail successfully connecting to freenode using its OVH address. However, my clients can't connect to ZNC using any of its 2 IPv6 addresses: I'm positive it is not a firewalling issue: pflog0 stays quiet when trying to connect...
Here are the routing tables:

Just use the /64 you already had. It may be just a "/64", but that's still way more addresses than you could possibly use.

So I could put my jails in the /64 and keep the same addressing scheme? (say, first 80 bits fixed on each loopback interface lo1, lo2, lo3)

However, I do need the /48 because this server is also my default IPv6 router for my VPN and the IPv6 LAN that sits behind one VPN client, and the remote LAN requires a /64 to properly work (SLAAC).
