Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 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.

I asked a similar question a few weeks ago. No response yet. Hopefully they will have something soon or tell us it isn't coming and we can look at alternative gateway devices. Personally I really like the Omada system. Just need some higher end options for gateway devices. Devices with more VPN throughput, Wireguard support, IPv6 Support, and Stateful Firewall rules both WAN to LAN and LAN to LAN. Later they could even offer more options with IDS/IPS, DNS filtering, Web Content Filtering, etc.

This has been forwarded to the developer team for further evaluation.

 

As far as I know, it's planned to be added gradually in the near future (it's only for reference).

Best Regards!

@Fae Thanks, there is definitely demand for this feature. I asked a similar question before that went unanswered, so it is good to know the request has at least been recorded.

 

Without this a transparent firewall is needed, or more likely a non-Omada router instead. It is a pretty basic feature that is very important. I, too, have simply disabled IPv6 for the time being. At a bare minimum there needs to be an ability with SLAAC to block all new incoming requests.
