1 TopicFVS318N allow login "By Source IP" with IPV6 address
Hi All - I'm trying to enable limited WAN side administration of my firewall by specifying IPs to allow. I have this working great on IPv4 from my work machine but my home computer (Comcast) only reports IPV6 on whatismyip.com so I guess I need to control it that way too...? I click menu banner Users Then select my admin user (the default admin is disabled and I'm using one I created) and open policies. Click to tab "By Source IP Address" Documentation all shows a IPV4 | IPV6 radio selector in upper right but I don't have that and the spot to enter addresses only has IPv4 octets. My LAN side is all IPV4. I thought maybe setting the router to "IPV4 / IPV6 mode" might enable the selection but it does not. Other Network config screens like WAN Settings (where docs also show the radio selector) give me separate tabs for 4 vs 6. Am I missing a step? Maybe I need a firmwear upgrade. It is on 4.0.1-67 which may be pretty old? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!Solved4.8KViews0likes7Comments
