IPv6 support on PPPoE
Hello
Am I see right that there is no dualstack support on PPPoE connection (in single session) ? Is there any plan to support this in the future?

Hi @Des
At this current time the firebox only supports IPv4 via PPPoE, and doesn't support dual stack. There is a feature request to support this, and it's FBX-6143.There isn't a current ETA on this feature.
If you'd like to follow that feature request, please create a support case, and mention FBX-6143 somewhere in the case. The tech assigned the case can set it up to follow that request for you.

@Norman that feature request is currently in progress, but there is not an ETA or target release associated with it at this time. I would assume it's at least a year out at this point.

It is now 14 Sep 2024.
As a newcomer to Watchguard stuff and having wasted 45 minutes trying to get an IPv6 address up via my router, I continue to be disappointed by Watchguard's shunning of IPv6.
I have worked with virtually all major vendors and I don't think I've ever encountered a company that boycotts IPv6 like Watchguard does.
For example of this:
https://community.watchguard.com/watchguard-community/discussion/198/need-ipv6-addresses-on-multiple-external-interfacesIt is incredibly disappointing to have such basic features missing from an internet gateway in this day and age.
