[8.200][BUG][WONT FIX] IPv6, AAA and Windows XP

Hi all,

I'm going to bring this up again since the original post got closed.

There is an issue with IPv6 and AAA. When you have Windows XP configured for IPv6 and try to use the AAA client you get an "Authentication Failed" message, yet IPv4 sites work no problem.

Scott Klassen confirmed this issue as well. See post from closed thread here:

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,

you have transparent HTTP proxy enabled?
If yes, is the LAN IPv6 network within the HTTP Proxy Allowed Networks?

Cheers
Ulrich

It is for me, yes. IPv6 using AAA works fine for Vista and Win7 clients, just not XP.

Ok can confirm that the AAA program only sends IPv6 addresses to the ASG
if running on Windows Vista or Windows 7, but not on Windows XP.

Our windows developer will have a look at this...

While we are at it Ulrich, there are two other issues with AAA on XP that I believe are related.

1) The password is not encrypted in the registry for AAA on XP
2) With AAA on XP, if the client is closed, then reopened, when you go to Set Credentials, the password box is not prepopulated with previously entered information (******) and the password must be reentered manually.

Thanks.

@scott: Our developer is already looking at that, id 18654

@utm_kid: where is the relation between AAA and Basic Authentication?!
If there is none, please open another thread...
