The following table lists the limitations when
Trend Vision One Endpoint Security agents only have an IPv6 address.
Pure IPv6 Agent Limitations
|
Item
|
Limitation
|
|
Parent server
|
Pure IPv6 agents cannot be managed by a
pure IPv4 server.
|
|
Updates
|
A pure IPv6 agent cannot update from pure
IPv4 update sources, such as:
|
|
Web Reputation queries
|
A pure IPv6 agent cannot send Web Reputation
queries to Trend Micro Smart Protection Network.
|
|
Proxy connection
|
A pure IPv6 agent cannot connect through
a pure IPv4 proxy server.
|
|
Agent deployment
|
Apple Remote Desktop is unable to deploy the agent to pure IPv6 endpoints because
these endpoints
always appear as offline.
|
Most of these limitations can be overcome by setting up a dual-stack
proxy server that can convert between IPv4 and IPv6 addresses (such
as DeleGate). Position the proxy server between the agents and the
entities to which they connect.
