Enabling IPv6 in Secure Context

If your router is in secure context, you must explicitly enable IPv6. By default in secure context, the router drops IPv6 packets. You can enable the router in one of the following ways to forward IPv6 packets:

• In the J-Web interface, select Configuration>View and Edit>Edit Configuration. To reach the correct J-Web page, select Configure or Edit next to Security, Forwarding options, Family, and finally Inet6. Next to Mode, select packet-based. Click OK.
• From configuration mode in the CLI, enter the command set security forwarding-options family inet6 mode packet-based.

Note: JUNOS software with enhanced services security processing is not applied to IPv6 packets forwarded by the router.
