Hello.

I have a IPv6 subnet and I have a number of servers, that act like a accelerator with nginx. Those are behind load-balancers. I give each website a unique combination of IP addresses from a pool (so each website has a different set of four IP addresses). I need to assign those IP addresses to accelerators, so they accept the packets that comes from the balancers. I need to assign all of addresses (500,000 IPs) from IPv6 subnet to a single FreeBSD interface. If I do that, FreeBSD hangs. Right now this is working with IPv4 addresses, but there are only 100 of them. Since IPv6 networks are bigger - more addresses can be added to unique combination. On Linux I can mark this network as 'local', so it accepts all packets that come to those addresses. Can I do this on FreeBSD and how?

  This is the linux command I use:
ip -6 route add local 2a00:15f8:f000::/64 dev eth0
