DSL PPoE IPv6

fabeele — Mon, 15 Feb 2021 20:05:42 GMT

I use a PA-220 with PANOS 10.0.4. At the location the internet provider arrives with DSL (FTTH) where the modem is configured in bridge mode. The only option option available is using PPoE. Provider sends both a IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

On cheap home routers it is possible to use both IPv4 and IPv6.
On the PA-220 IPv4 works just fine. But IPv6 is not working. The IPv6 tab does not appear in the interface configuration when choosing PPoE. Any workaround to make this work?

@palo Alto Networks: when will this feature be available in PANOS? The world is moving (very slowly) to IPv6 and PANOS does not have the feature of IPv6 for PPoE.

Your best recourse is to reach out to your local sales team to have a feature request submitted

they should also be able to tell you if a request like this is already present (someone else asked for it already) and if you're lucky they might know if this is already on the roadmap

Feature requests are not handled via this forum unfortunately

In May 2021, Palo Alto had received only 19 (nineteen) requests (worldwide) to implement IPv6 when using the option PPoE. Other features requests have more then hundred requests. To get this higher up the list, we need to submit this feature request with the commercial contact at Palo Alto.
