DCHPv6 Client not working with my ISP Huawei router machine

Hey y’all…

Trying several things here, but I can’t get the prefixes from my ISP using DCHPv6 Client.. I tried, and stay only in Searching… no matter I do, stay there… I believe there’s a error between RouterOS slaac IPv6 with Huawei server (which is my ISP server)

I have a Huawsei wifi router here, and IPv6 set to slaac and works like charm.. so, the problem is between my RouterOS and my ISP server.

Any clue? Do I need some config to do that?

Thanks!

Your topic contains DHCPv6 yet you mention SLAAC.
Which one are you trying to get working?
For SLAAC check https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IPv6/Settings

accept-router-advertisements (no | yes | yes-if-forwarding-disabled; Default: yes-if-forwarding-disabled) Accept router advertisement (RA) messages. If enabled router will be able to get address using stateless address configuration

But SLAAC and RouterOS aren’t friends, you can search the forums for SLAAC, you’d find every issue with it there scattered among many topics.

Is there another way for me to get prefixes from my ISP without slaac? I just mention slaac since my old router (Huawei) uses that.. :slight_smile:

From some wiresharking, I can tell my isp is using huawei equipment also, and I’ve had trouble with ipv6. But I’ve had the best success getting it to work with Mikrotik, vs. other routers.

What I do notice is that the first time it gets a prefix (or after after it’s been disconnected for a long time), it sometimes takes awhile. Sometimes several hours. If it’s been searching for more than 30 mins or so, it can help to click release, so it will search faster as it throttles down after some time. I find once it gets a prefix it holds onto it well, even when rebooting the router.

I have dhcpv6 client set to use rapid commit & add default route (get prefix only). Under IPv6 settings, IPv6 Forward is on.

Hello friend the problem was solved with version 7?

Unfurtunatly no. I’m running 7.10.2, and I can’t get IPv6 from my ISP. And yes, If I use another router (DLink, for example) I can get the IPv6 without problem.

I have no clue what it is, and how to fix it.. :frowning:
