9. (Optional) Select the Use This Interface ID check box and specify the interface ID
that you want to be used for the IPv6 address of the router's LAN interface.
If you do not specify an ID here, the router generates one automatically from its MAC
address.
10. Select an IPv6 Filtering radio button:
• Secured: In secured mode, which is the default mode, the router inspects both
TCP and UDP packets.
• Open: In open mode, the router inspects UDP packets only.
11. Click the Apply button.

Set up an IPv6 6rd tunnel Internet connection
The 6rd protocol makes it possible to deploy IPv6 to sites using a service provider's
IPv4 network. 6rd uses the service provider's own IPv6 address prefix. This limits the
operational domain of 6rd to the service provider's network and is under direct control
of the service provider. The IPv6 service provided is equivalent to native IPv6. The 6rd
mechanism relies on an algorithmic mapping between the IPv6 and IPv4 addresses that
are assigned for use within the service provider's network. This mapping allows for
automatic determination of IPv4 tunnel endpoints from IPv6 prefixes, allowing stateless
operation of 6rd.
With a 6rd Tunnel configuration, the router follows the RFC5969 standard, supporting
two ways to establish a 6rd tunnel IPv6 WAN connection:
• Auto Detect Mode: In IPv6 Auto Detect mode, when the router receives option 212
from the DHCPv4 option, auto detect selects the IPv6 as 6rd Tunnel setting. The
router uses the 6rd option information to establish the 6rd connection.
• Manual Mode: Select 6rd. If the router receives option 212, the fields are
automatically completed. Otherwise, you must enter the 6rd settings.
To set up an IPv6 6rd Tunnel Internet connection:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
Orbi network.
2. Enter orbilogin.com.
