Use the Networking > Network Status pages to view the traffic statistics, the
usage reports, the WAN bandwidth reports, all ARP (Address Resolution Protocol)
entries, and DHCP address assignment. For descriptions of these status reports,
see Network Status, page 88.
Configuring IPv4 or IPv6 RoutingUse the Networking > IPv4 or IPv6 Routing page to choose the IP routing mode for
your network. Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) is a new IP protocol designed to
replace IPv4, the Internet protocol that is predominantly deployed and extensively
used throughout the world. IPv6 quadruples the number of network address bits
from 32 bits (in IPv4) to 128 bits, resulting in an exponentially larger address
space. You can configure the security appliance to support IPv6 addressing on the
WAN, LAN, and DMZ.
!
CAUTION In the current firmware, IPv6 functionalities are limited. ISA500 does not support
firewall , VPN, and o ther secu rity ser vices for IPv6 in t his firmwa re. We recomm end
enabling IPv6 for lab te sting only with this firmwa re. Please check future firmwa re
and release notes for information about any IPv6 updates.
STEP 1 Click IPv4 or IPv6 to enable both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, or click IPv4 only to
enable only IPv4 addressing. By default, only IPv4 addressing is supported.
STEP 2 Click Save to save your set tings.
Managing PortsUse the Networking > Ports pages to configure the physical ports, port mirroring,
and port-based access control settings. Refer to the following topics:
•Viewing Status of Physical Interfaces, page 117
