Dual stack IP Host

Hi,

the bad news is you can't do it the same way as in the UTM.

XG treats IP4 and IPv6 as two seperate firewalls. You have to create two identities for each device and setup seperate rules. The current version of XG, v18.0.4 does not support FQDNs in IPv6 which makes firewall rules difficult at times.

Hi Ian,

Thanks for your reply. Very disappointing, partly because I have now fully set up UTM9 as a dual stack with FQDN's in IPv4 and IPv6. My conclusion is therefore to stay with UTM until Sophos has resolved this.

Hi Ed,

if you are running out of address space on the utm, then you might consider the XG otherwise stay with the utm.

the XG requires a Nat on all outgoing IPv6 traffic amongst other annoying issues.

Hi Ian,

I don't have any address space issues so I stay with the UTM for now.

Thanks for your advice.
