Enhance IP restrictions to support IPv6 addresses

Enhance IP restrictions to support IPv6 addresses

The IP restrictions under the Login Settings in the Marketo Admin do not accept IPv6 addresses and indicate “Invalid IP address”. Please enhance IP restrictions to support IPv6 addresses.

That is a clever suggestion. The shortage of IPv4 motivated companies to set non-public servers to IPv6. Database servers would be the perfect example since most of them are accessed by appliocations only.

Unix (Mac OS X included), Linux and other recent operating systems support IPv6 natively.

The number of desktop users on IPv6 will rise quickly as Internet Service Providers roll out new blocks.

Not only could this be germane to login restrictions, but it could also affect the Marketo activity log. The IP address recorded via a munchkin / cookie for a web page visit in Marketo's activity log might one day be, or may have to be, an IPv6 address rather than an IPv4 address.
