WAN IPv6 -> LAN IPv4 via NAT?
«

Hey everyone,
I wanted to ask if anyone has experience configuring NAT from IPv6 on the WAN to IPv4 on the LAN?
I've already successfully set up IPv6 on the WAN and feel like I've configured the NAT rules correctly as well. However, all IPv6 traffic trying to access the servers behind the NAT is being blocked by a "default deny rule".
I noticed there's no TCP for IPv6 (TCPv6) as a protocol option. So I'm worried that NAT translation from IPv6 to IPv4 might not even be possible?
Any insights from those who have dealt with this specific setup before would be really appreciated. Maybe there's a way I'm missing?
I know I could just statically configure IPv6 on the LAN, but I'd prefer to do it via NAT like I'm used to with IPv4 in order to retain the rule creation scheme.
Thanks in advance for any help!

UDP and TCP is the same for IPv4 and IPv6. Only ICMP needs special treatment in rules.
But I doubt your setup is supported, you should try a reverse proxy, probably.
