PVE 6.4: lxc masquerading from private to public net on ipv4 and ipv6

Hi,
I have lxc containers which shall only have an internal networking connection (on vmbr1 = private 10.010.10.x network). The PVE host has a masquerading rule to allow updating/installation jobs for the inernal lxc containers. For the ipv4 masquerading I followed this info:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Networ...ith_tt_span_class_monospaced_iptables_span_tt

# NAT masquerarding for internal private network to allow internet access from "private only" VMs # https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Network_Configuration # allow forwarding post-up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward # masquerading post-up iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s '10.10.10.0/24' -o enp0s31f6 -j MASQUERADE post-down iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s '10.10.10.0/24' -o enp0s31f6 -j MASQUERADE

where enp0s31f6 is the public interface of the PVE host (the public interface is bridged to vmbr0 for those lxc/kvm VMs that have a public ipv4 IP).

Has anyone succeeded with a similar setup? What would be the correct masquerading rule to do the same for ipv6 addressing ?

Thanks for any ideas,
Thommie
