Safely enabling applications, users and content in IPv6 environments
Organizations can deploy consistent safe application enablement policies across both IPv6, IPv4 and mixed environments.
|
Consistent user-based policies across IPv6 and IPv4 environments.Organizations that are implementing an IPv6 infrastructure can deploy the same user-based enablement policies that have been deployed in their IPv4 environments. IPv6-based applications and content can be classified, controlled, inspected, monitored and logged, just as they are in IPv4 environments. IPv6 user information can be captured from all of the User-ID supported directories and terminal services as well as captive portal and the XML API. In addition, the SSL encrypted User-ID to firewall communications protocol supports IPv6. |

Flexible deployment options simplify network integration.Support for virtual wire, layer 2, or layer 3 deployment modes for both IPv6 and IPv4 environments provides organization with flexible network integration options. Additional networking features include:

Management and administrative consistency between IPv6 and IPv4.When configuring management and administrative services, firewall managers can enter either IPv6 or IPv4 addresses.
