IPv6 must be on by default, and it is a static DHCP and DHCP6 lease.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#39;t really care about the printer - i&amp;#39;ve turned off IPv6, and usage is all DNS based anyway. I&amp;#39;m more concerned about the ability of a single device to cause issues with the UTM.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: DHCP6 DoS</title><link>https://community.sophos.com/thread/289470?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 04 Mar 2016 14:52:34 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">4be5eb7d-caa4-4ff5-8e60-8f9463545a35:df1965c1-495a-4cf0-89f0-6c1fb1f73fd0</guid><dc:creator>BLS</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Out of curiosity, what is the printer, and what is the firmware installed?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It could also be worth checking with the manufacture to see if this is a known issue, and if so there could be an updated firmware available?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also, most people set printers with static IP addresses, in the corporate world I would imagine the same to be done with printers on IPv6.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
