  • 1.  Endpoint 12.1 beta and IPv6

    Endpoint 12.1 beta still has firewall rules for disabling all IPv6 traffic.  When will Endpoint be able to handle IPv6 traffic?  Is this feature even planed for Endpoint 12.X?

    we block IPv6 by default, but we do support filtering IPv6 traffic with SEP12.

    There is one limitation though, we cannot input IPv6 addresses, but IPS and Firewall both filter IPv6 traffic, you can create rules for protocols, ports, etc. but not addresses at this point.
