In our network, we have a Cisco router acting as the core router, connecting all our sites to the main site. We also have a Linux firewall connecting us to the Internet.

The LAN between the Cisco and the Firewall has (for example, not actual) 2001:DB8::/64
, and the rest of 2001:DB8::/48
is distributed among the other sites.
Currently, the Cisco router is advertising 2001:DB8::/64
on the LAN, and the Linux Firewall is not advertising anything. As a result, the Cisco advertises itself as the default gateway, and wksta
sends any Internet-bound traffic to the Cisco router first, then gets redirected to the Firewall by the Cisco router.
Is there a better way to do this? I'd like to be able to advertise to the LAN that 2001:DB8::/48
should be directed towards the Cisco router, but the default gateway should be the Linux Firewall. Is this possible with stateless autoconfig?
The Cisco router's current interface config:
interface FastEthernet0/0
ipv6 address 2001:DB8::1/64
ipv6 enable
