@dirkt Well you could certainly use ebtables or whatever on bridged traffic. If you use a full-fledged Linux router. Most people don’t. Also, the performance impact makes bridge filtering impractical. You could also use proxy_ndp and routing to make this work with a single /64. However, again, this requires advanced setup.

| Nov 24, 2017 at 12:47 | comment | added | Daniel B | @dirkt How to it? Well by using a firewall of course. You can use connection tracking even without NAT. Unrelated traffic is simply dropped. | |

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. | |

| Oct 17, 2016 at 6:26 | comment | added | Daniel B | Well I wouldn’t really call that a solution. I’d rather forgo IPv6 than expose my internal network to others. | |
