To enable incoming       pings however you need to open the firewall for protocol 41. Protocol       41 is the protocol used for 6in4 tunneling. The firewall of openwrt is       closed for all unsollicited incoming packets by default. Bij pinging       out over IPv6, the firewall is opened for protocol 41, and it can be       pinged from outside, but it closes again after a minute or two. Add       the following lines to /etc/config/firewall to keep the tunnel open       permanently:              [code]              # Accept proto 41 so it always reaches the tunnel endpoint              config rule        option src wan        option proto 41        option target ACCEPT       [/code]                     === end quote ===                            Cheers, Michiel       --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: he.net certified sage (2:280/5555)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 19/10 30/0 80/1 90/1 105/81 120/340 123/131 154/10       SEEN-BY: 203/0 221/0 1 6 226/30 227/702 229/424 426 428 550 664 700       SEEN-BY: 240/1120 5832 249/206 317 400 250/1 261/38 280/464 5003 5006       SEEN-BY: 280/5555 282/464 1038 301/0 1 101 113 812 310/31 317/3 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 460/58 633/280 640/1384 712/848 920/1 2452/250 5019/40       SEEN-BY: 5020/545 1042 12000 5053/58 5058/104       PATH: 280/5555 301/1 229/426           |
