ICMP v6, Mikrotik Issues BGP
by Lionel Whitecross 28 Nov '25

28 Nov '25

Morning Peers, Have any of you had issues with IPv6 on Mikrotik, trying to bring back up our Google IPv6 however they cannot ping us on IPv6, I had similar issues with Seacom and rebooted router and then all of a sudden started working again. They need to be able to ping us in order for the BGP session to come up. Running V7.19.4 Tried turning off firewall rules, you name it. I can't see anything in the Mikrotik Forums regarding this, I'm just wondering if any of you have had similar experiences. Thank
