How to disable IPv6 ping echo reply in Ubuntu 18.04
I want to disable IPv4/6 ping echo reply on my Ubuntu 18.04.
For IPv4 I can do it with net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_all=1
in /etc/sysctl.conf
.
What is the IPv6 equivalent?
Here is my ip6tables -nvL
:

Don't do that. ICMPv6 echo requests are useful for debugging. They are also absolutely required for your service to be reachable for Teredo clients. Filtering those packets won't solve any problems but it will make problems harder to debug and introduce problems on its own. And if you make any mistake in the filter configuration you may end up filtering ICMPv6 packets which are even more important than echo requests.

I want to disable IPv4/6 ping echo reply on my Ubuntu 18.04.
For IPv4 I can do it with net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_all=1
in /etc/sysctl.conf
.
What is the IPv6 equivalent?
Here is my ip6tables -nvL
:

Don't do that. ICMPv6 echo requests are useful for debugging. They are also absolutely required for your service to be reachable for Teredo clients. Filtering those packets won't solve any problems but it will make problems harder to debug and introduce problems on its own. And if you make any mistake in the filter configuration you may end up filtering ICMPv6 packets which are even more important than echo requests.

Because you use ufw, you have to edit file /etc/ufw/before6.rules and add a line:
-A ufw6-before-input -p icmpv6 --icmpv6-type echo-request -j DROP
Then sudo service ufw restart
For "clean ip6tables" solution:
sudo ip6tables -A INPUT -p icmpv6 --icmpv6-type echo-request -j DROP
It will ignore every echo request packet. But be aware, that VPS provider may use echo-request/echo-reply to determine if your server is running.
this is not working. i can ping6 my vps anyway. and even it would ... how can i make this permanent? i'm using ufw ... should i write this in the /etc/ufw/before.rules?
