IPsec and IPv6

I was surprised to see that IPsec does not support IPv6 inside Router OS v5 RC5.

Is it possible to enable it before 5.0 release ?


IPsec is part of IPv6. It should be natively supported by routers.


As machine to machine (M2M) connectivity is possible and very simple with IPv6, it is important to support IPsec to give privacy to private connections.

Here you can find all supported IPv6 features. This list is updated whenever something new is added

IPv6 IPSEC is planned as discussed in this topic
