Title: Ipv6 to the Internet
Post by: spetrillo on May 30, 2020, 04:46:48 PM
I have some IPv6 servers I need to access on the Internet. Do I need to setup a separate gateway in order to do this? Has anyone done this?

No, You just need the correct rules for the ipv6 global address of the server.


I have and Alias Host set with the IPv6 global address of my web server, there's also an alias for the ports, 80 and 443. I then have a WAN rule that passes traffic for the destination of the web server IP and the ports alias is the destination port range. Source is any.


And that's it.


P.S. My floating rules contain Geo blocks and other stuff to prevent access from anywhere that I don't want to give access to.
