feat: activate 106 visual-validated canaries via swap

Imports 105 MD files (plus quick-start already present) from
origin/myst/current and adds them to docs/_swap.txt. The selection
is the BackstopJS visual-passers cohort: pages with <5% rendered
diff vs the live RST docs at docs.vyos.io/en/latest/, filtered to
those with an RST counterpart on current and no cmdincludemd usage
(template-format reconciliation pending).

Local sphinx-build with all 106 swapped: succeeded with 100
warnings (vs 95 baseline). The 5 new warnings are all undefined
cross-reference labels, not build failures:
- contributing/development.md (missing 'coding-guidelines')
- operation/upgrade-recovery.md (3 missing 'how_it_works' /
  'cancelling_recovery')
- vpp/configuration/dataplane/{buffers,memory,unix}.md (missing
  'vpp_config_dataplane_*' labels)

+# Bridge Firewall Configuration
+
+## Overview
+
+Learn more about bridge firewall configuration
+and related op-mode commands.
+
+The following commands are covered in this section:
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge \<options\>
+```
+From the main structure defined in
+{doc}`Firewall Overview</configuration/firewall/index>`
+in this section you can find detailed information only for the next part
+of the general structure:
+```none
+- set firewall
+    * bridge
+         - forward
+            + filter
+         - input
+            + filter
+         - output
+            + filter
+         - prerouting
+            + filter
+         - name
+            + custom_name
+```
+Traffic that is received by the router on an interface that is a member of a
+bridge is processed on the **Bridge Layer**. Before the bridge decision is
+made, all packets are analyzed at **Prerouting**. First filters can be applied
+here, and also rules for ignoring connection tracking system can be configured.
+The relevant configuration that acts in **prerouting** is:
+
+
+- `set firewall bridge prerouting filter ...`.
+
+
+For traffic that needs to be switched internally by the bridge, the base
+chain is **forward**, and its base command for filtering is `set firewall
+bridge forward filter ...`, which happens in stage 4, highlighted with red
+color.
+
+
+:::{figure} /_static/images/firewall-bridge-forward.png
+:::
+
+
+For traffic destined to the router itself or that needs to be routed
+(assuming a layer3 bridge is configured), the base chain is **input**, and the
+base command is `set firewall bridge input filter ...` and the path is:
+
+
+:::{figure} /_static/images/firewall-bridge-input.png
+:::
+
+
+If it's not dropped, then the packet is sent to **IP Layer**, and will be
+processed by the **IP Layer** firewall: IPv4 or IPv6 ruleset. Check once again
+the {doc}`general packet flow diagram</configuration/firewall/index>` if
+needed.
+
+
+For traffic that originates from the bridge itself, the base chain is
+**output**, and the base command is `set firewall bridge output filter
+...`, and the path is:
+
+
+:::{figure} /_static/images/firewall-bridge-output.png
+:::
+
+
+Custom bridge firewall chains can be created with the command `set firewall
+bridge name <name> ...`. To use such a custom chain, a rule with action jump
+and the appropriate target must be defined in a base chain.
+
+
+## Bridge Rules
+
+
+For firewall filtering, firewall rules need to be created. Each rule is
+numbered, has an action to apply if the rule is matched, and the ability
+to specify multiple matching criteria. Data packets go through the rules
+from 1 - 999999, so order is crucial. At the first match the action of the
+rule will be executed.
+
+
+### Actions
+
+
+If a rule is defined, an action must also be defined for it. This tells the
+firewall what to do if all matching criteria in the rule are met.
+
+
+In firewall bridge rules, the action can be:
+
+
+- `accept`: accept the packet.
+- `continue`: continue parsing next rule.
+- `drop`: drop the packet.
+- `jump`: jump to another custom chain.
+- `return`: Return from the current chain and continue at the next rule
+  of the last chain.
+- `queue`: Enqueue packet to userspace.
+- `notrack`: ignore connection tracking system. This action is only
+  available in prerouting chain.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> action [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | return]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> action [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | return]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> action [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | return]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> action [accept | continue | drop | jump | notrack | queue | return]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> action [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | return]
+
+
+This required setting defines the action of the current rule. If action is
+set to jump, then jump-target is also needed.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> jump-target \<text\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> jump-target \<text\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> jump-target \<text\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> jump-target \<text\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> jump-target \<text\>
+
+
+If action is set to ``queue``, use next command to specify the queue
+target. Range is also supported:
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> queue \<0-65535\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> queue \<0-65535\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> queue \<0-65535\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> queue \<0-65535\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> queue \<0-65535\>
+
+
+Also, if action is set to ``queue``, use next command to specify the queue
+options. Possible options are ``bypass`` and ``fanout``:
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options bypass
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options bypass
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options bypass
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options bypass
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> queue-options bypass
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options fanout
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options fanout
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options fanout
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options fanout
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> queue-options fanout
+```
+Also, **default-action** is an action that takes place whenever a packet does
+not match any rule in its chain. For base chains, possible options for
+**default-action** are **accept** or **drop**.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter default-action [accept | drop]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter default-action [accept | drop]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter default-action [accept | drop]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter default-action [accept | drop]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> default-action [accept | continue | drop | jump | reject | return]
+
+
+This sets the default action of the rule-set if a packet does not match
+any of the rules in that chain. If default-action is set to ``jump``, then
+``default-jump-target`` is also needed. Note that for base chains, default
+action can only be set to ``accept`` or ``drop``, while on custom chains
+more actions are available.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> default-jump-target \<text\>
+
+To be used only when ``default-action`` is set to ``jump``. Use this
+command to specify jump target for default rule.
+```
+:::{note}
+**Important note about default-actions:**
+If the default action for any base chain is not defined, then the default
+action is set to **accept** for that chain. For custom chains, if the
+default action is not defined, then the default-action is set to **drop**.
+:::
+
+
+### Firewall Logs
+
+
+You can enable logging for every firewall rule. If enabled, other log options
+can be configured.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> log
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> log

+```
+### Firewall Description
+
+
+You can define a description for reference for every custom chain.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> description \<text\>
+
+Provide a rule-set description to a custom firewall chain.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> description \<text\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> description \<text\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> description \<text\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> description \<text\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> description \<text\>
+
+
+Provide a description for each rule.
+```
+### Rule Status
+
+
+By default, when you define a rule, it is enabled. In some cases, it is
+useful to disable the rule instead of removing it.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> disable
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> disable
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> disable
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> disable
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> disable
+
+Command for disabling a rule but keep it in the configuration.
+```
+### Matching criteria
+
+
+There are many matching criteria against which a packet can be tested. Refer
+to {doc}`IPv4</configuration/firewall/ipv4>` and
+{doc}`IPv6</configuration/firewall/ipv6>` matching criteria for more details.
+
+
+Since bridges operate at layer 2, both matchers for IPv4 and IPv6 are
+supported in bridge firewall configuration. Same applies to firewall groups.
+
+
+Same specific matching criteria that can be used in bridge firewall are
+described in this section:
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> ethernet-type [802.1q | 802.1ad | arp | ipv4 | ipv6]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> ethernet-type [802.1q | 802.1ad | arp | ipv4 | ipv6]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> ethernet-type [802.1q | 802.1ad | arp | ipv4 | ipv6]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> ethernet-type [802.1q | 802.1ad | arp | ipv4 | ipv6]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> ethernet-type [802.1q | 802.1ad | arp | ipv4 | ipv6]
+
+
+Match based on the Ethernet type of the packet.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan ethernet-type [802.1q | 802.1ad | arp | ipv4 | ipv6]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan ethernet-type [802.1q | 802.1ad | arp | ipv4 | ipv6]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan ethernet-type [802.1q | 802.1ad | arp | ipv4 | ipv6]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan ethernet-type [802.1q | 802.1ad | arp | ipv4 | ipv6]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> vlan ethernet-type [802.1q | 802.1ad | arp | ipv4 | ipv6]
+
+
+Match based on the Ethernet type of the packet when it is VLAN tagged.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan id \<0-4096\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan id \<0-4096\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan id \<0-4096\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan id \<0-4096\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> vlan id \<0-4096\>
+
+
+Match based on VLAN identifier. Range is also supported.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge forward filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan priority \<0-7\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge input filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan priority \<0-7\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge output filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan priority \<0-7\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge prerouting filter rule \<1-999999\> vlan priority \<0-7\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> vlan priority \<0-7\>
+
+
+Match based on VLAN priority (Priority Code Point - PCP). Range is also
+supported.
+```
+### Packet Modifications
+
+
+Starting from **VyOS-1.5-rolling-202410060007**, the firewall can modify
+packets before they are sent out. This feaure provides more flexibility in
+packet handling.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge [prerouting | forward | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> set dscp \<0-63\>
+
+
+Set a specific value of Differentiated Services Codepoint (DSCP).
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge [prerouting | forward | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> set mark \<1-2147483647\>
+
+
+Set a specific packet mark value.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge [prerouting | forward | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> set tcp-mss \<500-1460\>
+
+
+Set the TCP-MSS (TCP maximum segment size) for the connection.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge [prerouting | forward | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> set ttl \<0-255\>
+
+
+Set the TTL (Time to Live) value.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge [prerouting | forward | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> set hop-limit \<0-255\>
+
+
+Set hop limit value.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall bridge [forward | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> set connection-mark \<0-2147483647\>
+
+
+Set connection mark value.
+```
+### Use IP firewall
+
+By default, for switched traffic, only the rules defined under `set firewall
+bridge` are applied. There are two global-options that can be configured in
+order to force deeper analysis of the packet on the IP layer. These options
+are:
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options apply-to-bridged-traffic ipv4
+
+This command enables the IPv4 firewall for bridged traffic. If this option
+is used, packets are also parsed by rules defined in ``set firewall ipv4
+...``
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options apply-to-bridged-traffic ipv6
+
+This command enables the IPv6 firewall for bridged traffic. If this option
+is used, packets are also parsed by rules defined in ``set firewall ipv6
+...``
+```
+## Operation-mode Firewall
+### Rule-set overview
+In this section you can find all useful firewall op-mode commands.
+General commands for firewall configuration, counter and statistics:
+```{opcmd} show firewall
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show firewall summary
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show firewall statistics
+```
+And, to print only bridge firewall information:
+```{opcmd} show firewall bridge
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show firewall bridge forward filter
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show firewall bridge forward filter rule \<rule\>
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show firewall bridge name \<name\>
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<rule\>
+```
+### Show Firewall log
+```{opcmd} show log firewall
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show log firewall bridge
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show log firewall bridge forward
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show log firewall bridge forward filter
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show log firewall bridge name \<name\>
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show log firewall bridge forward filter rule \<rule\>
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show log firewall bridge name \<name\> rule \<rule\>
+
+Show the logs of all firewall; show all bridge firewall logs; show all logs
+for forward hook; show all logs for forward hook and priority filter; show
+all logs for particular custom chain; show logs for specific Rule-Set.
+```

+# Global Options Firewall Configuration
+
+## Overview
+
+Some firewall settings are global and affect the entire system. This section
+provides information about these global options that you can configure using
+the VyOS CLI.
+
+Configuration commands covered in this section:
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options ...
+```
+## Configuration
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options all-ping [enable | disable]
+
+By default, when VyOS receives an ICMP echo request packet destined for
+itself, it answers with an ICMP echo reply, unless your firewall prevents
+it.
+
+You can set firewall rules to accept, drop, or reject ICMP in, out, or
+local traffic. You can also use the **firewall global-options all-ping**
+command. This command affects only LOCAL traffic (packets destined for your
+VyOS system), not IN or OUT traffic.
+
+:::{note}
+**firewall global-options all-ping** affects only LOCAL traffic
+and always behaves in the most restrictive way
+:::
+:::{code-block} none
+set firewall global-options all-ping enable
+:::
+When you set this command, VyOS answers every ICMP echo request addressed
+to itself, but that response occurs only if no other rule drops or rejects
+local echo requests. In case of conflict, VyOS does not answer ICMP echo
+requests.
+
+:::{code-block} none
+set firewall global-options all-ping disable
+:::
+When you set this command, VyOS answers no ICMP echo requests addressed to
+itself, regardless of where they come from or what specific rules accept
+them.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options apply-to-bridged-traffic [ipv4 | ipv6]
+
+Apply IPv4 or IPv6 firewall rules to bridged traffic.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options broadcast-ping [enable | disable]
+
+Enable or disable the response to ICMP broadcast messages. The system
+alters the following parameter:
+* ``net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts``
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options ip-src-route [enable | disable]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options ipv6-src-route [enable | disable]
+
+Set whether VyOS accepts packets with a source route option.
+The following sysctl parameters will be changed:
+* ``net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_source_route``
+* ``net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_source_route``
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options receive-redirects [enable | disable]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options ipv6-receive-redirects [enable | disable]
+
+Allow VyOS to accept ICMPv4 and ICMPv6 redirect messages.
+The following sysctl parameters will be changed:
+* ``net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_redirects``
+* ``net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_redirects``
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options send-redirects [enable | disable]
+
+Allow VyOS to send ICMPv4 redirect messages.
+The following sysctl parameter will be changed:
+* ``net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects``
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options log-martians [enable | disable]
+
+Allow VyOS to log martian IPv4 packets.
+The following sysctl parameter will be changed:
+* ``net.ipv4.conf.all.log_martians``
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options source-validation [strict | loose | disable]
+
+Set the IPv4 source validation mode.
+The following sysctl parameter will be changed:
+* ``net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter``
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options syn-cookies [enable | disable]
+
+Allow VyOS to use IPv4 TCP SYN Cookies.
+The following sysctl parameter will be changed:
+* ``net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies``
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options twa-hazards-protection [enable | disable]
+
+Enable or disable VyOS {rfc}`1337` conformance.
+The following sysctl parameter will be changed:
+* ``net.ipv4.tcp_rfc1337``
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options state-policy established action [accept | drop | reject]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options state-policy established log
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options state-policy established log-level [emerg | alert | crit | err | warn | notice | info | debug]
+
+Set the global setting for an established connection.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options state-policy invalid action [accept | drop | reject]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options state-policy invalid log
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options state-policy invalid log-level [emerg | alert | crit | err | warn | notice | info | debug]
+
+Set the global setting for invalid packets.

+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options state-policy related log-level [emerg | alert | crit | err | warn | notice | info | debug]
+
+Set the global setting for related connections.
+```
+VyOS supports setting timeouts for connections by connection type. You can
+set timeout values for generic connections, ICMP connections, UDP
+connections, or TCP connections in various states.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall global-options timeout icmp \<1-21474836\>
+:defaultvalue:
+```
+

+# Firewall groups
+
+## Configuration
+
+Firewall groups represent collections of IP addresses, networks, ports,
+MAC addresses, domains, or interfaces. You can reference a group in firewall,
+NAT, and policy route rules as either a source or destination matcher, and/or
+as inbound or outbound in the case of interface groups.
+
+### Address Groups
+
+An **address group** contains a single IP address or IP address range.
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group address-group \<name\> address [address | address range]
+```
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group ipv6-address-group \<name\> address \<address\>
+
+Define an IPv4 or IPv6 address group.
+
+:::{code-block} none
+set firewall group address-group ADR-INSIDE-v4 address 192.168.0.1
+set firewall group address-group ADR-INSIDE-v4 address 10.0.0.1-10.0.0.8
+set firewall group ipv6-address-group ADR-INSIDE-v6 address 2001:db8::1
+:::
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group address-group \<name\> description \<text\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group ipv6-address-group \<name\> description \<text\>
+
+Provide an IPv4 or IPv6 address group description.
+```
+### Remote Groups
+A **remote-group** uses a URL that hosts a newline-delimited list of IPv4
+and/or IPv6 addresses, CIDRs, and ranges. VyOS pulls this list periodically
+according to the frequency you define in the firewall **resolver-interval**
+and loads matching entries into the group for use in rules. The list is cached
+in persistent storage, so rules continue to function if updates fail.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group remote-group \<name\> url \<http(s) url\>
+
+Specify a remote list of IPv4 and/or IPv6 addresses, ranges, and CIDRs
+to fetch.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group remote-group \<name\> description \<text\>
+
+Set a description for a remote group.
+```
+The remote list format is flexible. VyOS attempts to parse the first word of
+each line as an entry and skips lines it cannot match. Lines that begin with
+an alphanumeric character but do not match valid IPv4 or IPv6 addresses,
+ranges, or CIDRs are logged to the system log. The following examples show
+acceptable formats that VyOS parses correctly:
+```none
+127.0.0.1
+127.0.0.0/24
+127.0.0.1-127.0.0.254
+2001:db8::1
+2001:db8:cafe::/48
+2001:db8:cafe::1-2001:db8:cafe::ffff
+```
+### Network Groups
+**Network groups** accept IP networks in CIDR notation. You can add specific
+IP addresses as a 32-bit prefix. If you need to add a mix of addresses and
+networks, use a network group.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group network-group \<name\> network \<CIDR\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group ipv6-network-group \<name\> network \<CIDR\>
+
+Define an IPv4 or IPv6 network group.
+
+:::{code-block} none
+set firewall group network-group NET-INSIDE-v4 network 192.168.0.0/24
+set firewall group network-group NET-INSIDE-v4 network 192.168.1.0/24
+set firewall group ipv6-network-group NET-INSIDE-v6 network 2001:db8::/64
+:::
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group network-group \<name\> description \<text\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group ipv6-network-group \<name\> description \<text\>
+
+Provide an IPv4 or IPv6 network group description.
+```
+### Interface Groups
+An **interface group** represents a collection of interfaces.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group interface-group \<name\> interface \<text\>
+
+Define an interface group.
+Wildcard ``*`` is supported. For example: ``eth3*``.
+Prepend the character ``!`` to invert the criteria. For example: ``!eth2``.
+```
+
+```none
+set firewall group interface-group LAN interface bond1001
+set firewall group interface-group LAN interface eth3*
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group interface-group \<name\> description \<text\>
+
+Provide an interface group description.
+```
+### Port Groups
+A **port group** represents only port numbers, not the protocol. You can
+reference port groups for either TCP or UDP. Create TCP and UDP groups
+separately to avoid accidentally filtering unnecessary ports. Specify port
+ranges by using `-`.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group port-group \<name\> port [portname | portnumber | startport-endport]
+
+Define a port group. A port name can be any name defined in
+/etc/services. For example, ``http``.
+
+:::{code-block} none
+set firewall group port-group PORT-TCP-SERVER1 port http
+set firewall group port-group PORT-TCP-SERVER1 port 443
+set firewall group port-group PORT-TCP-SERVER1 port 5000-5010
+:::
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group port-group \<name\> description \<text\>
+
+Provide a port group description.
+```
+### MAC Groups
+A **mac group** represents a collection of mac addresses.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group mac-group \<name\> mac-address \<mac-address\>
+
+Define a mac group.
+```
+
+```none
+set firewall group mac-group MAC-G01 mac-address 88:a4:c2:15:b6:4f
+set firewall group mac-group MAC-G01 mac-address 4c:d5:77:c0:19:81
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group mac-group \<name\> description \<text\>
+
+Provide a MAC group description.
+```
+### Domain Groups
+A **domain group** represents a collection of domains.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group domain-group \<name\> address \<domain\>
+
+Define a domain group.
+```
+
+```none
+set firewall group domain-group DOM address example.com
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group domain-group \<name\> description \<text\>
+
+Provide a domain group description.
+```
+### Dynamic Groups
+Firewall dynamic groups differ from other groups because you can use them as
+source/destination in firewall rules, and members are not defined statically
+in VyOS configuration. Instead, firewall rules dynamically add members to
+these groups.
+
+#### Defining Dynamic Address Groups
+Dynamic address groups support both IPv4 and IPv6 families. Use these
+commands to define dynamic IPv4 and IPv6 address groups:
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group dynamic-group address-group \<name\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group dynamic-group ipv6-address-group \<name\>
+```
+Add description to firewall groups:
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group dynamic-group address-group \<name\> description <text>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall group dynamic-group ipv6-address-group \<name\> description <text>
+```
+#### Adding elements to Dynamic Firewall Groups
+After you define dynamic firewall groups, use them in firewall rules to
+dynamically add elements to them.
+
+Commands used for this task are:
+- Add destination IP address of the connection to a dynamic address group:
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv4 [forward | input | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group destination-address address-group \<name\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv4 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group destination-address address-group <name>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 [forward | input | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group destination-address address-group \<name\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group destination-address address-group <name>
+```
+- Add source IP address of the connection to a dynamic address group:
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv4 [forward | input | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group source-address address-group \<name\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv4 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group source-address address-group <name>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 [forward | input | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group source-address address-group \<name\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group source-address address-group <name>
+```
+You can define specific timeouts per rule. When a rule matches, the source or
+destination address is added to the group, and the element remains in the group
+until the timeout expires. If you do not define a timeout, the element remains
+in the group until the next reboot or until you commit firewall configuration
+changes.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv4 [forward | input | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group [destination-address | source-address] timeout <timeout>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv4 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group [destination-address | source-address] timeout \<timeout\>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 [forward | input | output] filter rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group [destination-address | source-address] timeout <timeout>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> add-address-to-group [destination-address | source-address] timeout \<timeout\>
+```
+Timeout can be defined using seconds, minutes, hours or days:
+```none
+set firewall ipv6 name FOO rule 10 add-address-to-group source-address timeout
+Possible completions:
+<number>s            Timeout value in seconds
+<number>m            Timeout value in minutes
+<number>h            Timeout value in hours
+<number>d            Timeout value in days
+```
+#### Using Dynamic Firewall Groups
+Like other firewall groups, you can use dynamic firewall groups in firewall
+rules as matching options. For example:
+```none
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 10 source group dynamic-address-group FOO
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 10 destination group dynamic-address-group BAR
+```
+## Examples
+
+### General example
+After you create firewall groups, you can reference them in firewall, NAT,
+NAT66, and/or policy-route rules. The following example creates multiple
+groups:
+```none
+set firewall group address-group SERVERS address 198.51.100.101
+set firewall group address-group SERVERS address 198.51.100.102
+set firewall group network-group TRUSTEDv4 network 192.0.2.0/30
+set firewall group network-group TRUSTEDv4 network 203.0.113.128/25
+set firewall group ipv6-network-group TRUSTEDv6 network 2001:db8::/64
+set firewall group interface-group LAN interface eth2.2001
+set firewall group interface-group LAN interface bon0
+set firewall group port-group PORT-SERVERS port http
+set firewall group port-group PORT-SERVERS port 443
+set firewall group port-group PORT-SERVERS port 5000-5010
+```
+And next, some configuration example where groups are used:
+```none
+set firewall ipv4 output filter rule 10 action accept
+set firewall ipv4 output filter rule 10 outbound-interface group !LAN
+set firewall ipv4 forward filter rule 20 action accept
+set firewall ipv4 forward filter rule 20 source group network-group TRUSTEDv4
+set firewall ipv6 input filter rule 10 action accept
+set firewall ipv6 input filter rule 10 source group network-group TRUSTEDv6
+set nat destination rule 101 inbound-interface group LAN
+set nat destination rule 101 destination group address-group SERVERS
+set nat destination rule 101 protocol tcp
+set nat destination rule 101 destination group port-group PORT-SERVERS
+set nat destination rule 101 translation address 203.0.113.250
+set policy route PBR rule 201 destination group port-group PORT-SERVERS
+set policy route PBR rule 201 protocol tcp
+set policy route PBR rule 201 set table 15
+```
+### Port knocking example
+You can use dynamic firewall groups with port knocking to secure access to
+the router or any other device. The following example shows a 4-step port
+knocking configuration:
+```none
+set firewall global-options state-policy established action 'accept'
+set firewall global-options state-policy invalid action 'drop'
+set firewall global-options state-policy related action 'accept'
+set firewall group dynamic-group address-group ALLOWED
+set firewall group dynamic-group address-group PN_01
+set firewall group dynamic-group address-group PN_02
+set firewall ipv4 input filter default-action 'drop'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 5 action 'accept'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 5 protocol 'icmp'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 10 action 'drop'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 10 add-address-to-group source-address address-group 'PN_01'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 10 add-address-to-group source-address timeout '2m'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 10 description 'Port_nock 01'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 10 destination port '9990'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 10 protocol 'tcp'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 20 action 'drop'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 20 add-address-to-group source-address address-group 'PN_02'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 20 add-address-to-group source-address timeout '3m'
+set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 20 description 'Port_nock 02'

+Before testing, we can check the members of firewall groups:
+```none
+vyos@vyos# run show firewall group
+Firewall Groups
+
+Name     Type                    References            Members        Timeout    Expires
+-------  ----------------------  --------------------  -------------  ---------  ---------

+PN_02    address_group(dynamic)  ipv4-input-filter-20  N/D            N/D        N/D
+[edit]
+vyos@vyos#
+```
+With this configuration, to gain SSH access to the router, the user must:
+
+1. Create a new TCP connection to destination port 9990. A new entry is added
+   to dynamic firewall group `PN_01`.
+
+   ```none
+   vyos@vyos# run show firewall group
+   Firewall Groups
+
+   Name     Type                    References            Members        Timeout    Expires
+   -------  ----------------------  --------------------  -------------  ---------  ---------

+   PN_01    address_group(dynamic)  ipv4-input-filter-10  192.168.89.31  120        119
+   PN_02    address_group(dynamic)  ipv4-input-filter-20  N/D            N/D        N/D
+   [edit]
+   vyos@vyos#
+   ```
+
+2. Create a new TCP connection to destination port 9991. A new entry is added
+   to dynamic firewall group `PN_02`.
+
+   ```none
+   vyos@vyos# run show firewall group
+   Firewall Groups
+
+   Name     Type                    References            Members        Timeout    Expires
+   -------  ----------------------  --------------------  -------------  ---------  ---------

+   PN_01    address_group(dynamic)  ipv4-input-filter-10  192.168.89.31  120        106
+   PN_02    address_group(dynamic)  ipv4-input-filter-20  192.168.89.31  180        179
+   [edit]
+   vyos@vyos#
+   ```
+
+3. Create a new TCP connection to destination port 9992. A new entry is added
+   to dynamic firewall group `ALLOWED`.
+
+   ```none
+   vyos@vyos# run show firewall group
+   Firewall Groups
+
+   Name     Type                    References            Members        Timeout    Expires
+   -------  ----------------------  --------------------  -------------  ---------  ---------
+   ALLOWED  address_group(dynamic)  ipv4-input-filter-30  192.168.89.31       7200       7199
+   PN_01    address_group(dynamic)  ipv4-input-filter-10  192.168.89.31        120         89
+   PN_02    address_group(dynamic)  ipv4-input-filter-20  192.168.89.31        180        170
+   [edit]
+   vyos@vyos#
+   ```
+
+4. Now you can connect via SSH to the router (assuming SSH is
+   configured).
+
+## Operation-mode
+```{opcmd} show firewall group
+```
+
+```{opcmd} show firewall group \<name\>
+
+Display an overview of defined groups, including the firewall group name,
+type, references (where the group is used), members, timeout, and
+expiration (the last two only apply to dynamic firewall groups).
+```
+Here is an example of such command:
+```none
+vyos@vyos:~$ show firewall group

+# IPv6 Firewall Configuration
+
+## Overview
+
+This section covers useful information about IPv6 firewall configuration and
+appropriate operation-mode commands.
+
+This section describes the following configuration commands:
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 ...
+```
+To learn about the general traffic flow in VyOS firewalls, see {doc}`Firewall </configuration/firewall/index>`.
+```none
+- set firewall
+    * ipv6
+         - forward
+            + filter
+         - input
+            + filter
+         - output
+            + filter
+            + raw
+         - prerouting
+            + raw
+         - name
+            + custom_name
+```
+The router first receives all traffic and processes it in the **prerouting**
+section.
+
+
+This stage includes:
+
+
+- **Firewall Prerouting**: commands found under `set firewall ipv6
+  prerouting raw ...`
+- {doc}`Conntrack Ignore</configuration/system/conntrack>`: `set system
+  conntrack ignore ipv6...`
+- {doc}`Policy Route</configuration/policy/route>`: commands found under
+  `set policy route6 ...`
+- {doc}`Destination NAT</configuration/nat/nat44>`: commands found under
+  `set nat66 destination ...`
+
+
+For transit traffic that the router receives and forwards, the base chain is
+**forward**. The following diagram shows a simplified packet flow for transit
+traffic:
+
+
+:::{figure} /_static/images/firewall-fwd-packet-flow.png
+:::
+
+
+Use `set firewall ipv6 forward filter ...` to configure filtering rules for
+transit traffic. This command corresponds to stage 5 and is highlighted in red
+in the diagram.
+
+
+For traffic destined to the router, use the **input** chain. For traffic the
+router generates, use the **output** chain. The following diagram shows the
+packet flow for traffic destined to the router and traffic generated by the
+router (starting from circle number 6):
+
+
+:::{figure} /_static/images/firewall-input-packet-flow.png
+:::
+
+
+Use `set firewall ipv6 input filter ...` to configure traffic destined to
+the router.
+
+
+Use `set firewall ipv6 output ...` to configure traffic the router generates.
+Two sub-chains are available: **filter** and **raw**:
+
+
+- **Output Prerouting**: `set firewall ipv6 output raw ...`.
+  As described in **Prerouting**, the firewall processes rules in this
+  section before the connection tracking subsystem.
+- **Output Filter**: `set firewall ipv6 output filter ...`. The firewall
+  processes rules in this section after the connection tracking subsystem.
+
+
+:::{note}
+**Important note about default-actions:**
+If you do not define a default action for a base chain, the system sets
+the default action to **accept** for that chain. For custom chains, if you
+do not define a default action, the system sets the default-action to
+**drop**
+:::
+
+
+Create custom firewall chains using the commands
+`set firewall ipv6 name <name> ...`. To use the custom chain, define a
+rule with **action jump** and the appropriate **target** in a base chain.
+
+
+## Firewall - IPv6 Rules
+
+
+Create firewall rules for firewall filtering. Each rule is numbered and has
+an action to apply when the rule is matched. You can specify multiple matching
+criteria. Packets go through rules from 1 - 999999, so order is crucial. The
+firewall executes the action of the first matching rule.
+
+
+### Actions
+
+
+If you define a rule, you must define an action for it. The action tells the
+firewall what to do when all criteria for that rule are met.
+
+
+The action can be :
+
+
+- `accept`: accept the packet.
+- `continue`: continue parsing next rule.
+- `drop`: drop the packet.
+- `reject`: reject the packet.
+- `jump`: jump to another custom chain.
+- `return`: Return from the current chain and continue at the next rule
+  of the last chain.
+- `queue`: Enqueue packet to userspace.
+- `synproxy`: synproxy the packet.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> action [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return | synproxy]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> action [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return | synproxy]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> action [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> action [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
+
+
+This required setting defines the action of the current rule. If you set
+the action to jump, you must also define a jump-target.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> jump-target <text>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> jump-target <text>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> jump-target <text>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> jump-target <text>
+
+
+Use this command only when action is set to ``jump``. Specify the jump
+target.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> queue <0-65535>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> queue <0-65535>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> queue <0-65535>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> queue <0-65535>
+
+
+Use this command only when action is set to ``queue``. Specify the queue
+target. Queue ranges are also supported.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options bypass
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options bypass
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options bypass
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> queue-options bypass
+
+
+Use this command only when action is set to ``queue``. This command allows
+the packet to go through the firewall when no userspace software is connected
+to the queue.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options fanout
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options fanout
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> queue-options fanout
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> queue-options fanout
+
+
+Use this command only when action is set to ``queue``. This command
+distributes packets among multiple queues.
+```
+Also, **default-action** is an action that takes place whenever a packet does
+not match any rule in its chain. For base chains, possible options for
+**default-action** are **accept** or **drop**.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter default-action [accept | drop]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter default-action [accept | drop]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter default-action [accept | drop]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> default-action [accept | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
+
+
+Set the default action of the rule-set if a packet does not match any rule
+criteria. If you set default-action to ``jump``, you must also define
+``default-jump-target``. For base chains, you can only set the default
+action to ``accept`` or ``drop``. For custom chains, more actions are
+available.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> default-jump-target \<text\>
+
+To be used only when ``default-action`` is set to ``jump``. Use this
+command to specify the jump target for the default rule.
+```
+:::{note}
+**Important note about default-actions:**
+If you do not define the default action for a base chain, the system sets
+the default action to **accept** for that chain. For custom chains, if you
+do not define a default action, the system sets the default-action to
+**drop**.
+:::
+
+
+### Firewall Logs
+
+
+You can enable logging for each firewall rule. When enabled, you can also
+define other log options.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> log
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> log
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> log
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> log
+
+Enable logging for matched packets. If this configuration command is not
+present, logging is disabled.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter default-log
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter default-log
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter default-log
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> default-log
+
+Use this command to enable the logging of the default action on
+the specified chain.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options level [emerg | alert | crit | err | warn | notice | info | debug]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options level [emerg | alert | crit | err | warn | notice | info | debug]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options level [emerg | alert | crit | err | warn | notice | info | debug]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> log-options level [emerg | alert | crit | err | warn | notice | info | debug]
+
+
+Define log-level. Only applicable if rule log is enabled.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options group <0-65535>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options group <0-65535>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options group <0-65535>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> log-options group <0-65535>
+
+
+Define the log group to send messages to. Only applicable if rule log is
+enabled.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options snapshot-length <0-9000>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options snapshot-length <0-9000>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options snapshot-length <0-9000>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> log-options snapshot-length <0-9000>
+
+
+Define the length of packet payload to include in a netlink message. Only
+applicable when rule logging is enabled and log group is defined.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options queue-threshold <0-65535>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options queue-threshold <0-65535>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> log-options queue-threshold <0-65535>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> log-options queue-threshold <0-65535>
+
+
+Define the number of packets to queue inside the kernel before sending them
+to userspace. Only applicable when rule logging is enabled and log group is
+defined.
+```
+### Firewall Description
+
+
+For reference, you can define descriptions on every rule and custom chain.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> description \<text\>
+
+Provide a rule-set description to a custom firewall chain.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> description <text>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> description <text>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> description <text>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> description \<text\>
+
+Provide a description for each rule.
+```
+### Rule Status
+
+
+New rules are enabled by default. In some cases, you may want to disable a
+rule rather than remove it.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> disable
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> disable
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> disable
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> disable
+
+Command for disabling a rule but keep it in the configuration.
+```
+### Matching criteria
+
+
+There are a lot of matching criteria against which the packet can be tested.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> connection-status nat [destination | source]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> connection-status nat [destination | source]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output filter rule \<1-999999\> connection-status nat [destination | source]
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 name \<name\> rule \<1-999999\> connection-status nat [destination | source]
+
+
+Match packets based on NAT connection status.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> connection-mark <1-2147483647>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 input filter rule \<1-999999\> connection-mark <1-2147483647>
+```

+Apply an arbitrary netmask to mask addresses and match only a specific
+portion. This is useful for IPv6 because rules remain valid when the IPv6
+prefix changes if the host portion of the system's IPv6 address is static.
+Examples include SLAAC and [tokenised IPv6 addresses](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/id/draft-chown-6man-tokenised-ipv6-identifiers-02.txt)
+
+
+This function works for both individual addresses and address groups.

+### Packet Modifications
+
+
+The firewall can modify packets before sending them.
+This feature provides more flexibility for packet handling.
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 prerouting raw rule \<1-999999\> set dscp <0-63>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> set dscp <0-63>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output [filter | raw] rule \<1-999999\> set dscp <0-63>
+
+
+Set a specific value of Differentiated Services Codepoint (DSCP).
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 prerouting raw rule \<1-999999\> set mark <1-2147483647>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> set mark <1-2147483647>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output [filter | raw] rule \<1-999999\> set mark <1-2147483647>
+
+
+Set a specific packet mark value.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 prerouting raw rule \<1-999999\> set tcp-mss <500-1460>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule \<1-999999\> set tcp-mss <500-1460>
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 output [filter | raw] rule \<1-999999\> set tcp-mss <500-1460>

+## Synproxy
+
+
+Synproxy connections
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 [input | forward] filter rule \<1-999999\> action synproxy
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 [input | forward] filter rule \<1-999999\> protocol tcp
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 [input | forward] filter rule \<1-999999\> synproxy tcp mss <501-65535>
+
+
+ Set the TCP MSS (maximum segment size) for the connection.
+```
+
+```{cfgcmd} set firewall ipv6 [input | forward] filter rule \<1-999999\> synproxy tcp window-scale <1-14>
+
+
+ Set the window scale factor for TCP window scaling.
+```
+### Example synproxy
+
+
+Requirements to enable synproxy:
+
+
+- Traffic must be symmetric
+- Synproxy relies on syncookies and TCP timestamps, ensure these are enabled
+- Disable conntrack loose track option
+```none
