IPv6 Dual-Stack Testing
Maintain performance, security, and stability of IT infrastructure while validating the ability to support dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 traffic
The introduction of IPv6 has greatly expanded the capacity of the Internet, but it has also created countless integration and testing headaches. How do you ensure that your network can efficiently handle both protocols, no matter how heavy the traffic load, without impacting infrastructure resiliency?
BreakingPoint Actionable Security Intelligence (ASI) solutions allow you to test the resiliency of devices and systems under dual-stack conditions. Based on a patented network processor architecture, BreakingPoint ASI solutions provide native support for both IPv4 and IPv6, enabling you to validate infrastructures quickly and easily, before and after deployment.
Using BreakingPoint IPv6 testing solutions you will:
- Understand throughput, connection rate, and concurrent session capacity of today’s IPv6 devices, which often underperform IPv4 devices
- Validate the ability of firewalls, IPS devices, and other security equipment to stop threats in IPv6 as effectively as in IPv4
- Uncover interoperability issues among devices from different vendors
- Ensure that technologies such as network address translation (NAT) that bridge the gap between IPv4 and IPv6 do not impede infrastructure resiliency
Learn how BreakingPoint ASI solutions provide the most compliant IPv6 testing platform in the industry.
