IPv6 BGP Support

Feature/Application:

Is IPv6 BGP supported by SonicWall?


Answer:

SonicWall has implemented IPv6 BGP support on firmware version 6.2.0.0.

IPv6 Border Gateway protocol (BGP) communicates IPv6 routing information between Autonomous Systems (ASs).
A SonicWall security appliance with IPv6 BGP support can replace a traditional BGP router on the edge of a network's AS.

IPv6 BGP can be enabled on the Network > Routing page, but must be configured on the SonicOS Command Line Interface (CLI).


Note: MPLS/VPN and multi cast are not supported for IPv6 BGP in SonicOS 6.2.0.0.
