Hmm I have already used it as IPv4 firewall but it didn't work. are icmptypes for ipv6 different from ipv4? i just want to block any echo request to my computer from ipv6 network.

This is my Rule:
$cmd 00501 allow ipv6-icmp from $net to me in icmptypes 136 via $int
$cmd 00502 deny ipv6-icmp from any to me in icmptypes 136 via $int
