Capsule Windows-Client and IPv6

OlafYstroem — Mon, 24 Jul 2023 09:54:39 GMT

Hi everyone,

are there any known limitations/issues to use IPv6 with the Capsule Windows-Clients?

Don't believe it's currently supported based on sk67820. Suggest following up with your local SE if this is important for you.

Chris is 100% correct. We had case about this last year and TAC gave us exact same sk saying its not supported. Rather than submitting RFE, just contact your local Sales person about it.

Cheers,

Andy

Out of curiosity, does our local Sales persons have access to a hidden release (for gateways/management, etc) with IPv6 support (I mean the long awaited feature to route IPv6 traffic through the VPN client), compared to filing a RFE?

sk166415 is the latest published update I've seen on related topics though it doesn't specify to which client types it applies.

I really cant give an answer to that question truthfully, as I have no clue in the world :). All I can tell you is they most likely have access to all SKs marked internal, which customers/partners like us dont, so thats something they would be able to check for you.

That sk Chris mentioned talks about R82 and that release could be a year, 2 years away...who knows lol

I have not seen any customer releases involving this functionality.
However, it makes sense this support would be added as part of the major changes coming to R82.

That would be awesome!

It would be fantastic to see more IPv6/IPv4 feature parity, especially Remote Access VPN support (both having clients connect to an IPv6 endpoint, but also route IPv6 traffic through the tunnel). We have been running native IPv6 for years in our network (dual-stack), and I have always looked with anticipation for any IPv6 related enhancements.

Fingers crosses - is there a (public) roadmap for R82 to see anywhere yet?

I presume we will have more to share when R82 is closer to GA.

IPv6 via VPN will be a great feature

100%!

Absolutely also one of my greater feature wishes. It is possible on site-to-site tunnels (AFAIK), but not client VPN.
