About Internet Protocols in managed environment
ePolicy Orchestrator software is compatible with both Internet Protocol versions 4 and 6 (IPv4, IPv6).
ePolicy Orchestrator servers work in three different modes:
• Only IPv4 — Supports only IPv4 address format
• Only IPv6 — Supports only IPv6 address format
• Mixed mode — Supports both IPv4 and IPv6 address formats
The mode in which your ePolicy Orchestrator server works depends on your network configuration. For
example, if your network is configured to use only IPv4 addresses, your server works in Only IPv4
mode. Similarly, if your network is configured to use both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, your server works
in Mixed mode.
Until IPv6 is installed and enabled, your ePolicy Orchestrator server listens only on IPv4 addresses .
When IPv6 is enabled, it works in the mode in which it is configured.
When the McAfee ePO server communicates with an Agent Handler or Rogue System Sensor on IPv6,
address-related properties such as IP address, subnet address, and subnet mask are reported in IPv6
format. When transmitted between client and ePolicy Orchestrator server, or when displayed in the
user interface or log file, IPv6-related properties are displayed in the expanded form and are enclosed
in brackets.
For example, 3FFE:85B:1F1F::A9:1234 is displayed as [3FFE:085B:1F1F:0000:0000:0000:00A9:1234].
When setting an IPv6 address for FTP or HTTP sources, no modifications to the address are needed.
However, when setting a Literal IPv6 address for a UNC source, you must use the Microsoft Literal
IPv6 format. See Microsoft documentation for additional information.
