Need to pass IPv6 Connectivity to a VLAN, many VMs need to be reachable from the Internet on port 161

Question

I see an IPv6 address on my WAN port, but none on any of my configured VLANs or Interfaces. 
 I'm guessing I need to configure IPv6 Router Advertisements, but when I click it doesn't have an interface

I'm not sure how to open this port up for these devices

HI, 
 IPv6 on an XG (current version) requires a NAT to access the internet. You could try setting up aliases on the WAN port using the IPv6 range assigned to you.

Hi, 
 the XG does not propagate IPv6 addresses. You need to setup your own internal address ranges and do not forget to use a Nat. You can use ra or dhcp or both. If you use ra you will end with multiple IPv6 addresses on devices, so you will need to workout how your filtering rules will apply to specific devices or the entire IPv6 range. 
 I use dhcp and ra, with some of the ra features disabled so only one address is assigned.
