RealTek 2.5 GbE (RTL8125) support?

I'm looking to set up a pure-IPv6 environment to test the viability of it. I tried this a few years ago and fell flat on my face due to the lack of NAT64 and DNS64 support. Reading through docs now, it looks like unbound has a DNS64 module, and NAT64 is baked into ipfw. Waving a hand at bug-
