IPv6 DHCP-PD Support

ToddMiller

There hasn't been a lot of talk in the roadmap discussion about the implementation of IPv6 DHCP-PD support on the XG platform.  Can we expect to see that at some point in the near future?

    there are countless requests for dhcp -pd.. Most business class ISP  (Timewarner, Comcast) use DHCP-pd to hand out v6 addresses so you not supporting that feature means we can not use native v6 . this was a feature of utm9 so why not migrate it over? the way v6 is implemented now makes it as useful as a sack of shit.

    I would consider the ability to obtain IP addressing basic functionality, but what do I know.  As mentioned, DHCP-PD client is in UTM, even if it can't send a "hint" to request more than a /64.

    Anyway, the XG workaround I'm doing is to have a router (MikroTik) get the IPv6 addressing (DHCP-PD) and then place XG immediately behind it, in bridge mode.  This will give you the essential functions of Web Filter, Application Filter, IPS, etc. for both IPv4 and IPv6.
