Hello Baptiste,<br>
<br>
Clarifying my point "should" I meant "From common sense" and also
"From Widely accepted practice".<br>
<br>
One that may use applications that may need to be reachable from
outside can adjust the firewall manually to reflect that for the
desired ports which is not a big deal, or even by UPnP which is even
simpler.<br>
I would say more that depending on the environment if a specific
user prefers, the firewall in the router can allow any traffic to
his IP only and he can control it locally in his machine.<br>
<br>
Therefore there are possibilities and these in my opinion are less
costly and more secure to have by default.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
Fernando<br>

<pre wrap="">Hello guys,
This discussion if becoming each day more confusing for something, which for
me, is very simple assuming the following:
- IPv6 as IPv4 should block *any incoming connection* on the WAN
interface including those directed to the LAN IPs behind it.

As explained before: this is a mostly unavoidable fact for IPv4, because
of NAT.
Now, if this is avoidable, such as with IPv6, does it have any
justification? Does your "should" comes from a RFC? From common sense?
