IPv6 (connection network is unreachable) [Solved]

Hello,
I have configure IPv6 with DHCP6 on my WAN interface. it’s works because i have obtain an IP address v6 of my ISP.
But it’s impossible to ping with ipv6.

All trafic from LAN to WAN is authorized on the firewall.

Try to ping your IPv6 Gateway.
You can check it out by ip -6 route.

Hello,
I can ping my IPv6 Gateway.

It seems like you dont have dns server assigned. Can you ping ip directly not an resolvable address.

Try to ping google dns servers:
2001:4860:4860::8888 and
2001:4860:4860::8844

I can’t ping dns servers :

root@turris:~# ping6 2001:4860:4860::8888
PING 2001:4860:4860::8888(2001:4860:4860::8888) 56 data bytes
From 2a01:XXX:XXX:XXX::1 icmp_seq=1 Destination unreachable: Address unreachable
From 2a01:XXX:XXX:XXX::1 icmp_seq=2 Destination unreachable: Address unreachable
From 2a01:XXX:XXX:XXX::1 icmp_seq=3 Destination unreachable: Address unreachable

Give all of this information to your ISP and ask for support there. It might be some misconfiguration on their side.

@AreYouLoco Thank you for your help.
The rule was disabled some many months ago. I have never works IPV6 with my ISP…
and undoubtedly I had deactivated it as a precaution.
