how to set up an IPv6 static connection to ISP?

Sat Jun 05, 2021 8:34 pm

hello everyone,

I have a basic question regarding setting up RouterOS to connect to my ISP statically.

I was provided with this configuration data:
WAN: 2a02:768:xxxx::ffff:10.13.11.86
GW: 2a02:768:xxxx::1
Prefix: 2a02:768:yyyy::/64
All posts I found dealt with configuring the DHCP client, which is not my case here I presume. I came up with this:
/ipv6 address> print
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, D - dynamic, G - global, L - link-local 
 #    ADDRESS                                     FROM-POOL INTERFACE                                     ADVERTISE
 1  G 2a02:768:yyyy::1/64                                   bridge                                        no       
 2 DL fe80::a55:31ff:fe1e:3c22/64                           bridge                                        no       
 3 DL fe80::a55:31ff:fe1e:3c21/64                           ether1-WAN                                    no       

/ipv6 route> p
Flags: X - disabled, A - active, D - dynamic, C - connect, S - static, r - rip, o - ospf, b - bgp, U - unreachable 
 #      DST-ADDRESS              GATEWAY                  DISTANCE
 0   S  ::/0                     2a02:768:xxxx::1         1
 1 ADC  2a02:768:yyyy::/64       bridge                   0
But it's not working: link-local addresses are "reachable", but with Route #0 it says "unreachable".
I also have a server, and I'm able to ping the gateway 2a02:768:xxxx::1 without problems, but I'm unable to ping my Mikrotik or out of it ("no route to host").

thank you for any pointers!

Finally figured it out, I had to put the "WAN address"
2a02:768:xxxx::ffff:10.13.11.86
into the Addresses as
2a02:768:xxxx::ffff:10.13.11.86/64
with Advertise set to Yes.
