Hi,


Are there plans for gateway ACLs for ipv6 like other routers? With the enablement of ipv6 for our matter devices I want to block internet access at the gateway level like in your FAQ: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/4117/, but this is not possible at this time on the ER7212PC

I would like to be able to follow the FAQ, and to be able to use my IPv6 WAN safely from my LAN https://www.tp-link.com/uk/support/faq/4117/

 

Currently the Er7212pc behaves differently from FAQ guidance: there is no default deny rule, and no IPv6 groups can be used in Gateway ACLs.

here wondering when we can expect this  feature to be introduced too?

bump - still no ipv6 firewall to be seen. This is crucial.

@silversurger 

The Data Sheet for the ER7212PC *v2* states "IPv6 ACL" in the list of security features.

https://support.omadanetworks.com/en/document/23413/

 

The opinion from tp link on this forum is that the v1 hardware (memory and cpu speed) is too weak to support any more features than are already built in.

 

Personally I'd be happy to swap out the whole OC controller for better routing 🤷

 

The v1 does allow ipv6 routing to be selectively enabled or disabled for each configured LAN, but I've got it turned off for all of my LANS.

  @RockPaper Can you link me to some of those threads, weren't able to find them.

 

If the v1 will never get IPv6 ACLs (I bought it because I was under the impression that it does support it), that's a pretty big issue for me and I'll have to look into returning the hardware.

 

Thanks!
