General • [SHARE] IPv6 gigabit solution for now

It may vary by your devices
I got a hAP ac2 that has switch chip (required maybe?)
This is workaround for my IPv6 only network, /64 block from ISP

The concept is using a physical ethernet port to assign an IPv6 prefix
- ROS 6 only, ROS 7 is even slower for me
- no default config, no firewall
- eth1 WAN pppoe to ISP
- eth2 assign an IPv6 prefix (NOT a bridge interface)
- eth3-5 as a members of bridge (HW offload by default)
- connect ethernet cable eth2 to eth3

With this setup i got around 920Mbps for IPv6 by nPerf (single connection)
Only have 2 free ports eth4-5, you can add wlan1-2 to a bridge if you want

I tried assign an IPv6 to a bridge got 800Mbps for few hours then drop to 600Mbps
Comments are welcome
