All of the Security Agent installation methods can be used to install the Security Agent on pure IPv6 or dual-stack Security Agents. For some installation methods, there are special requirements to install the Security Agent successfully.
It is not possible to migrate ServerProtect™ to the Security Agent using the ServerProtect Normal Server Migration Tool because the tool does not support IPv6 addressing.
Installation Method |
Requirements/Considerations |
|---|---|
Web install page and browser-based installation |
The URL to the installation page includes the Apex One server's host name or its IP address. If you are installing to a pure IPv6 Security Agent, the server must be dual-stack or pure IPv6 and its host name or IPv6 address must be part of the URL. For dual-stack Security Agents, the IPv6 address that displays in the installation status screen depends on the option selected in the Preferred IP Address section of on the Network tab. |
Agent Packager |
When running the packager tool, you will need to choose whether to assign Update Agent privileges to the Security Agent. Remember that a pure IPv6 Update Agent can distribute updates only to pure IPv6 or dual-stack Security Agents. |
Security Compliance, Vulnerability Scanner, and remote installation |
A pure IPv6 server cannot install the Security Agent on pure IPv4 endpoints. Similarly, a pure IPv4 server cannot install the Security Agent on pure IPv6 endpoints. |
