How do you guys prevent IPV6 leaks to internet, without disabling local peers using it.
Asus firmware has a solution called IPV6 Pass through only. It allowed ipv6 home network to talk.
[Using VPN softare blocks or disable IPV6 not an option. They f up homegroup]
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Config firewall zone settings?
2. or, traffic rules?
3. other configs I can do via LuCI?
--Thanks

What do you mean by "IPV6 leaks" exactly? Default configuration does not route incoming IPV6 traffic to local nodes.
I believe j808 is talking about the fact that he is using an IPv4-only VPN service, and when a host is resolved to an IPv6 address, the client makes a connection to the internet directly rather than via the VPN tunnel.
The real solution is to use a VPN service which supports IPv6, since OpenVPN already supports IPv6. However, OpenVPN will _not_ translate IPv6 to IPv4 (one would need something like NAT64 for that).
The discussion might have continued from here.
