  • Well I wouldn’t really call that a solution. I’d rather forgo IPv6 than expose my internal network to others.

  • @DanielB Yes, this is kind of a way, not the preferred one. I am still asking for a better solution.

  • @DanielB: How exactly do you want to avoid "exposing your internal network to others" in IPv6? Global IPv6 addresses are reachable from everywhere, and IPv6 NAT is icky. Ok, you can stop link-local broadcasts etc. by not briding, but that's about all you can do, I think.

  • @dirkt How to it? Well by using a firewall of course. You can use connection tracking even without NAT. Unrelated traffic is simply dropped.

  • @DanielB: If you want a firewall, then add a firewall. That's unrelated to the question of "routing or bridging".
