Congratz on achieving active carrier wave on your NICs.

Right now your system is running with link-local IPv6 addresses. You 
may view LL addresses as VLAN local. Packets to such addresses will 
never ever be forwarded by a router.

Instead set up either official IPv6 addresses/subnets or create your 
own Unique Local Addresses (ULA) as I wrote previously about.

Augment your /etc/rc.conf file with, say:

ifconfig_rl0_ipv6="inet6 fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100::101 prefixlen 64"

You may assign the IPv6 address manually to avoid restarting the 
networking subsystem or the whole machine:

ifconfig rl0 inet6 fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100::101 prefixlen 64

Next, create /etc/rtadvd.conf with the following contents:

rl0:\
	:addr="fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100::":prefixlen#64:

If you want IPv6 routing on the re0 interface, you need, say this, in 
/etc/rc.conf:

ifconfig_re0_ipv6="inet6 fd44:13de:a366:200::1 prefixlen 64"

Assign the IPv6 address manually using:

ifconfig re0 inet6 fd44:13de:a366:200::1 prefixlen 64

And add this to /etc/rtadvd.conf:

re0:\
	:addr="fd44:13de:a366:200::":prefixlen#64:

You'll need to restart rtadvd by issuing /etc/rc.d/rtadvd restart.

Happy hacking.
