NPTv6

Network Prefix Translation, shortened to NPTv6, is used to translate IPv6 addresses. A common usage for this is to translate global (“WAN”) IPs to local ones. In this regard, it is similar to NAT, although NPTv6 can only be used to map addresses one-to-one, unlike NAT which typically translates one external IP to several internal ones.

NPTv6 routes are listed at Firewall ‣ NAT ‣ NPTv6. New rules can be added by clicking Add in the upper right corner. A quick overview of the fields:
