Sophos XG IPV6 Support timeline

Is there a timeline or any plans to add support for IPV6 PPPoE and Prefix Delegation on the Sophos XG?

Dual Stack is becoming more and more ubiquitous quite simply Sophos XG cannot handle it, even having some other router in front of it doesn't really help much since while it allows the SXG to get an IPV6 without prefix delegation it's not really useful.

I'm in the situation where I have to change firewall now, but if the feature is planned/coming anytime soon, maybe with 20.0, I'd be willing to wait and stick with Sophos for now, so I came asking hoping for good news.

  • Hi,

    1/. Assign IPv6 address to your internal interfaces.

    2/. create DHCP servers for each address range /64 for each interface

    3/. using your router to obtain your external IPv6 address

    4/. WAN interface assign a /64 address with the router as your gateway

    5/. check the XG RA settings

    6/. create a IPv6 NAT until V20 EAP is released

    7/. create IPv6 firewall rules

  • I'll try that while I wait for v20, thanks

  • Hi,

    that is a basic setup I have except for the WAN. Warning XG does not accept IPv6 FQDN.
