When the connection type is not IPv6 Pass Through or Disabled, the router starts the
stateful packet inspection (SPI) firewall function on the WAN interface. The router creates
connection records and checks every inbound IPv6 packet. The router blocks this packet
when the inbound packet is not destined to the router itself and the router does not expect
to receive such a packet. The router also blocks this packet when the packet is not in the
connection record. This function has two modes.
Specify the mode by selecting one of the following radio buttons:
