Q&A
Networking goal:
Get the server on the Internet, quickly, securely,
and with as little networking knowledge,
using automation where at all possible

Many partners have their own FW preferences
(small number of customers use ISA)

One IP per protocol stack
Static IPv6 on server. Clients in stateless mode
DHCP support for IPv4 and IPv6
IPv6 DHCP only provides DNS server
