15 5 IPv6 Firewall
IPv6 Firewall protects your IPv6 network by preveting access from the internet. However,
when you are hosting a service, such as a file sharing server in your local network, you
can choose to allow access to the server from the internet by adding entries on this
page. This feature is available only when you’ve set up an IPv6 connection.
