subnetmask IP6 question

mrshahin

Hi,

I want to create an network object address for this IPv6 address:

2001:65c:1e8::/48

can you tell me what should I use as subnet?

Hi @mrshahin

You would have to create the IPv6 object as same as below screen shot.

Thanks for your reply,
We want to allow access to that IPv6 net to one of our internal servers and I want to create an address obiect network,
Should I use the prefix as subnet?
Thanks

Hi @mrshahin

For IPv6 you would have to use prefix as subnet.

mrshahin

should we use the perfix that we see in screenshot or can be shorter?

Did tried with the prefix and get thid error

I just use the 48 in perfix and could create the object address, is this correct way to do it?
