ACLs in IPv6 aren’t that different from what you’re used to dealing with in the IPv4 world.  You create a list of denies and permits for use with some other structure like filtering, PBR, and all sorts of other stuff.  Let’s take a look at building an ACL and filtering traffic with it.

For those playing at home, here’s the setup I used to generate the configs and get the output.  Execute some click action for the whole thing.

My ISP at home is great.  I have infinite bandwidth because they have no idea how to do any rate limiting.  Heck, they’re not even skilled enough to know that I have several public IP addresses from their DHCP server.  That means, though, that they’re not ready for IPv6.  They’ve ignored my emails and support tickets asking about their deployment strategy, so I gave up and looked at turning up a tunnel with a broker.  I chose Hurricane Electric for no particular reason; they were just the first ones I found.  The setup was super-easy and works flawlessly.
