To set up an ipv4 router, we need to enable the net.ipv4.ip_forwarding. Is there anything similar to set up an ipv6 router, such as net.ipv6.ip_forwarding=1?

Yes, per interface (decided on received packets) and globally (all/default)

i.e.

find /proc -name forwarding |grep ipv6
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/sit1/forwarding
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eth1/forwarding
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/sit0/forwarding
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eth0/forwarding
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/lo/forwarding
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/default/forwarding
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/forwarding
