What is IPv6

 New Internet Protocol born in 1993  Increases address space by 4x  Simplifies headers  Replaces IPv4, but can also co-exist  Core network infrastructure has been upgraded 3 © Blue Coat Systems, Inc. 2009. All Rights Reserved.

Customer Challenges

 Elimination of NAT firewall  Broader risk surface area  Greater risk to internal network (from outside)  New (NAT-challenged) apps/services available  Extending security policy  Maintaining visibility 4 © Blue Coat Systems, Inc. 2009. All Rights Reserved.
