Hi there,
just registered as I’m thinking of buying a new router (GT-AX11000 Pro or GT-AXE16000) and I’m not sure how well IPv6 firewall rules are configurable.
I need some open ports for my dual stack WAN. As I got it right port forwarding for IPv4 is possible, but is it possible to just create a firewall rule for IPv6 with an empty local IP value to allow all clients?
My ISP uses dynamic prefixes and some of my devices have extension privacy enabled which can’t be disabled. If it’s not possible with the official firmware, will it be possible with the Merlin software?
Currently I’m using a different router where I can configure such rules.
Thanks in advance!
