Using the IPv6 inbound rules you set the rules that the IPv6 firewall should use to handle incoming traffic.
The factory settings provide various rules for the most important applications.
Click on Add to create a new rule.
You can set the following properties for the rule:
- Name
- Specifies the name of the rule.
- This rule is active for the firewall
- Enables the rule.
- Priority
- Specifies the priority of the rule: The higher the value, the higher the priority.
- Src-Tag
- Enter an interface or routing tag here (tag context) if you want the rule to apply only to packets marked in this way. The default value of 0 means that this rule applies to all packets regardless of the interface or routing tag.Note: If only packets with the interface or routing tag 0 are to be considered, then 65535 must be specified here.
- Actions

If you make a new entry here, it initially appears under Unknown source. Next, highlight the entry for a source that you want to assign to the new entry, and click on Manage source. Set the values for this entry, and save the new object. The new entry now appears as a new object in the list of the corresponding source.
