I am configuring a PFSense box to use as a firewall. It's config should be:
IPv6 address: 2a01:4f8:a0:241b::1
Gateway: fe80::1
But when I try to add this gateway in the gui, PFSense refuses and tells me it cannot do this:
And when I use the CLI it tells me this:
Not in subnet!
I tried this config on a Windows box hooked up to the same switch/router, and not only did it not complain, it works as in intended and can contact services like google using this gateway. I have no clue as to why PFSense would not accept this config.
