It just means you refuse unlisted connections. Some of        MV>> them, not all of them.               DP> From current nodelist:               DP> LO Node accepts calls Only from Listed               DP> There is nothing about "some of them", the description is pretty        DP> strict - "Only from Listed". Could you please cite any Fidonet        DP> document along with your interpretation?              Not here, it is not related to IPv6, so off-topic. If you wish to discuss this       any further meet me in FN_SYSOP.              [..]               DP>>> Even setting Attack Protection to Disabled + Security level =        DP>>> Off               MV>> Yes, when I disable the IPv6 firewall, incoming IPv6 connection        MV>> are possible. But of course I am not going to do that. Then ALL        MV>> unsollicited IPv6 packets are allowed. No way Jose!               DP> Looks like someone decided to skip proper firewall implementation :(              Indeed. FTH is booming and the competition is fierce. Several competing       companies ae rolling it out like a flood. Planting their flag in as many       households in as short a time as possible is their first priority. All to be       ahead of the competition.              My fiber ISP is Delta Caiway and the connection has been active for just over       a year. IPv6 is relatively new to them. Until less than a year ago they were       IPv4 only. They are relatively new and so they do not have a large stockpile       of IPv4 like the incumbants. They grow fast and so last year they ran out of       IPv4 and started putting customers on CGNAT. Then they woke up and realised       that they could no longer postphone IPv6. So now they offer IPv6. But as could       be expected under these circumstances, they still have to deal with the       child's diseases. It is something that all IPv6 advocates - including me -       have been saying for years. Don't postpone IPv6 until you no longer have a       choice. Because then it will take much more effort and cost much more than       when you do it when there is no deadline. We see what happens if you do not       listen to that advice.              In theory I could fix it by getting my own fiberglass modem/router but for       XSPON they are expensive and there is little choice. Plus that it is not easy       to get it running. I just think that the burden of providing a decent       modem/router is on them.                     Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: he.net certified sage (2:280/5555)       SEEN-BY: 19/10 90/1 103/705 104/117 105/81 106/201 124/5016 153/757       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 154/10 30 203/0 218/700 221/0 226/30 227/114 229/110       SEEN-BY: 229/114 206 317 400 426 428 470 550 616 664 700 240/1120       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 250/1 266/512 280/464 5003 5006 5555 282/1038 291/111       SEEN-BY: 292/854 8125 301/1 310/31 320/219 322/757 341/66 234 342/200       SEEN-BY: 396/45 423/120 460/58 467/888 633/267 280 281 410 412 418       SEEN-BY: 633/420 509 2744 712/848 770/1 5020/400 545 1042 5053/58       SEEN-BY: 5075/35       PATH: 280/5555 464 633/280 229/426           |
