First time router / vpn / ipv6

Hello,

This is my first time setting up a VPN on a router.

I'm having a problem with IPV6 leaking my IP. My VPN is with Torguard and I'm using the latest version of Pfsense.

Is there a way to block leaks of IPV6 without disabling IPV6 on my modem or disabling IPV6 on each device?

My modem has 4 ports and I'm running a network on one port that needs IPV6. Another port is running my VPN network so disabling IPV6 on the modem is not possible.

I'm not sure if setting up a block rule on pfsense would work. I tried but had no luck.

How is everyone running a router / vpn dealing with IPV6?

Thank you.

Due to pfSense being a firewall, one might imagine a firewall rule to block said traffic ..

One does not chance to luck when configuring firewall rules, if one has any sand at all..
