IPv6 Support on Cellular Interface for PA-415-5G Firewall

On a PA-415-5G firewall, the cellular interfaces support dynamically obtaining an IPv6 prefix.
Many organizations face the problem of connecting branch offices or remote sites in locations that don't have access to traditional internet providers. The challenge is even greater when a site's only option is a cellular network that uses only IPv6.
The PA-415-5G firewall addresses this by supporting dynamic IPv6 addressing on it cellular interface. This feature allows the firewall to obtain a dynamic IPv6 prefix from a cellular provider, establishing a direct connection to your corporate network even when the ISP only offers IPv6. The firewall can also be configured with a dual-stack configuration to support both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic over the same cellular interface.
This new capability ensures that remote locations can maintain a secure and reliable connection to the rest of your organization. It expands the options available for connecting your business, enabling you to deploy a firewall in any location with a 5G cellular network.
Supported for:
