assinging private ipv6 addresses in LAN dhcpv6
![](/avatar/default.png)
I do have 2 wan connections and my ISP's provide ipv6.
I configured my WAN's and get can the ipv6's on my wan interfaces.
I'm wondering why we can't use private IP addresses within FD00::/7

thanks, waiting for the the news.
From my educated guess, assigning private ipv6's within the network would require a NAT6 implementation, which seems to missing atm.

An great example why we need to be able to use fd00/7 addresses with NAT6 support (private ipv6 addresses - www.wikiwand. com/en/Unique_local_address) and only deliver them in home / business networks to local nodes:

Without fd00/7 addresses and assigning public ipv6 addresses, your network is basically vulnerable to external access without proper ipv6 firewall configuration (which i wonder if with current omada ACL rules possible for ipv6 traffic?)
