IPv6 for Cloud Managed NGFWs

Learn about the new support for IPv6 addresses while setting up your cloud managed NGFWs in Strata Cloud Manager.
Strata Cloud Manager now provides comprehensive IPv6 capabilities to help you manage your network infrastructure in dual-stack environments. This enhancement brings IPv6 parity with PAN-OS management capabilities, allowing you to configure and manage both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing across your NGFW deployments through the cloud management platform.
You can now configure IPv6 addressing for management interfaces including dedicated management ports and auxiliary interfaces. The management interface configuration supports both static IPv6 addressing and dynamic DHCPv6 client options with configurable parameters such as non-temporary address options, temporary address options, rapid commit, and DUID type selection. For auxiliary interfaces, you can specify IPv6 addresses with prefix lengths and configure default IPv6 gateways to ensure proper routing in your management network.
