Prisma Access is extending its support for IPv6 from private applications to encompass comprehensive end-to-end IPv6 support for Mobile Users, Remote Networks, and Service Connections. One advantageous aspect of native IPv6 support is its capacity to enable Mobile Users utilizing IPv6-only endpoints to establish connections with Prisma Access via IPv6 connections using GlobalProtect. Additionally, this support facilitates accessing public SaaS applications over the internet, particularly where those destinations necessitate IPv6 connections.

IPv6 boasts a significantly larger address space compared to IPv4, thereby accommodating an almost limitless number of unique IP addresses. Through native IPv6 support, Prisma Access is engineered to be compatible with both IPv6 and dual-stack connections, facilitating the migration process from IPv4 to IPv6. This compatibility ensures backward compatibility and empowers organizations in their transition to cloud-based and IPv6-enabled networks.
