Getting back to the recently revised topic of this thread - IPv6 uptake - what have peoples' experiences been related to crafting sane v6 firewall rulesets in recent products from the major firewall players (Palo Alto, Cisco, Fortinet, etc)?
Hi Justin, It's been years since I used anything other than Linux to build someone a firewall. It has such a superior toolset, not just for setting rules but for diagnosing things that don't work as expected. The COTS products aren't just painful for IPv6, they're painful for IPv4. I especially despised the Cisco PIX/ASA line. I did use Fortinet's WAF product for a while and it was okay. I only used it as a reverse proxy to a web server, and then only because it was a security compliance requirement for that project.
