This is the script I was sent to set things up -
#!/bin/sh
ifconfig gif create
gifconfig gif0 inet 217.204.162.182 193.113.58.80
&& ifconfig gif0 inet6 2001:618:400::d9cc:a2b6 prefixlen 128
&& route add -inet6 default fe80::%gif0
&& ifconfig fxp0 inet6 2001:618:456:: prefixlen 48
&& sysctl –w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1
&& /usr/sbin/rtadvd fxp0
&& echo "IPv6 configuration completed" ||
{ echo "IPv6 configuration failed!" 1>&2; exit 1; }

This is the result of deleting their default route & applying your suggested one
-
andromeda# route add -inet6 default 2001:618:1::a0
route: writing to routing socket: Network is unreachable
add net default: gateway 2001:618:1::a0: Network is unreachable

Do I need to apply any IPv6 firewall rules to make things work? (preferred fw is
ipf)
Do I need to set anything in rc.conf? (I assumed script would do everything)
