IPv6 Firewall rules - TL-R605 v1 1.1.1
Starting to play around with IPv6 and it all works so fare very well... although I'm curious if I can find somewhere in the controller settings to adjust/manage firewall rules for IPv6.
Currently ports and services are exposed to the Internet via IPv6, of course I can do host based firewalls, but preferably do it on the router for the whole LAN.
To decrease the attack surface, I currently disabled IPv6 and enable it only when I play around with it.

@Fae will this also include IPv6 support in the Gateway ACL?

It's confirmed that IPv6 Firewall rule is planned to be supported in the firmware adapted to Omada Controller v5.9, which can be expected to release in the end of December.
Will the IPv6 firewall also be available in standalone mode?
A business router without an IPv6 firewall... sigh!
Sure, the thing is cheap, but how can you forget such a must have?

Hi, any news on this request and the new firmware that was due end of December? I presume this will also be supported by the ER7206?
Let us know, thx!

@Fae As others have already asked do you know if there is any update on when this will be released?
Also will the updated firmware be for both v1 and v2 or the ER605?
Thanks

Dear @paderijk, @m.fessler, @SuperUserOne, @ldev, @sgo, @Probi,
Thanks for your continuous attention to this thread. Sorry that it seems the firmware for supporting IPv6 Firewall rule has been postponed, we haven't been informed when the new firmware that supports IPv6 Firewall rules will get ready to release yet.
According to the past release order, I would expect that the Omada Controller v5.9 would support IPv6 configuration first, and then the Omada Gateway would release the firmware to support IPv6 firewall rules in the year. As for whether the updated firmware would be for both v1 and v2 on the ER605, I will try and provide an update for you when we get a notice of the firmware release for the IPv6 firewall feature, or when we get our hands on the new firmware for trial.
