RE: 1.32 and IPv6

Guys, can you reach your external modem thru monowall? When I set the WAN
port to pppoe, it has no real address anymore... I found out that doing
pppoe from my laptop works fine to establish a connection to my ISP (no
monowall in between, Vigor 120 in pppoe to ppp0a passthru mode) AND that I
can still reach the web interface of the modem. Obviously this goes outside
the ppp tunnel. Would be nice to have that too when I place the monowall box
in between...
