no ipv6 with rtsold

I'm having an issue getting proper ipv6 service from my home router. On the same machine, my Fedora Linux get's a working ipv6.

Posting here because I had the same issue on another box running TrueNAS

I have not spotted anything in dmesg. I have tried following https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/how-to-get-complete-boot-message.53547/#post-301139 to get the full boot console log, but it doesnt' work.

Any idea what I could do to log what rtsold does and figure out why I don't automatically get an ipv6? I can manually configure one, but then I have to manage ipv6 for all my machines and that's painful.
 
So I tried and started rtsol with both -D for debug and -i for immediate
root@NomadBSD:~ # rtsol -Di wlan0
rtsol: checking if wlan0 is ready...
rtsol: wlan0 is ready
rtsol: set timer for wlan0 to 0s

rtsol: set timer for wlan0 to 4s
rtsol: New timer is 4s
rtsol: received RA from fe80::160c:76ff:fead:c9e8 on wlan0, state is 2

rtsol: ndo->nd_opt_type = 25
rtsol: ndo->nd_opt_len = 3
rtsol: nsbuf = fd0f:ee:b0::1
rtsol: ndo = 0x14393670fe98

rtsol: ndo->nd_opt_type = 1
rtsol: ndo->nd_opt_len = 1
rtsol: rsid = [wlan0:slaac]
rtsol: write to child = nameserver (11)
rtsol: write to child = fd0f:ee:b0::1(13)
rtsol: write to child =

rtsol: script "/sbin/resolvconf" status 0
rtsol: stop timer for wlan0

I'm not familiar with reading this - but it seems to me that things are working or at least not complaining about any thing.

I don't see traffic immediately when using tcpdump -i wlan0 -v -X, I do see some traffic but a bit later than after rtsol returned.

How your interface looks like after apply rtsold ?

It looks like

I have solved the issue on my TrueNas machine, by adding `net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv` set to one.
 
On my nomadbsd that's unfortunately not enough - I now get a gateway, I can ping6 the default gateway's ipv6, but I can't reach external networks :(
 
In my setup I am using a bridge . I would guess without a bridge it should be easier .... . Can you try

ifconfig wlan0 inet6 -ifdisabled
ifconfig wlan0 inet6 accept_rtadv
rtsol -D wlan0

What I have learned is that the sequence of commands in the rc.conf is very important . I gave up on my physical machine and used a vm for testing.

In my configuration I am also specifying the interface for rtsold.

#snippet from rc.conf
rtsold_enable="YES"
rtsold_flags="-i -m $interface"
