IPv6 support for Network Access Control (NAC)

Junos OS supports IPv6 for the network access control (NAC) system. You can configure a Web API client address with an IPv6 address and Web API supports IPv6 user or device entries obtained from Juniper Identity Management Service (JIMS). Device can query JIMS periodically for batches of newly generated IPv6 users or devices for identity information. Devices can query JIMS for identity information for an individual user or device based on the IPv6 address when the IPv6 traffic hits the device. Device firewall authentication can push IPv6 IP-user mapping information to JIMS.
