One of my branch offices internet drops at least 3 or 4 times a day. Can anyone give me a hand with this and tell me what I can do to resolve it. Thanks

Hey guys, I will do a screen shot of the log file so its not so jammed. Also, I spoke with Sonicwall Tech support and they told me not worry about it, that it has to do with the IPS providing IPv6 traffic because people are starting to use IPv6 now. Is this true???

Before asking more questions please answer mine so I can better assist you. Go through the steps I provided above and see if it resolves the issue.

Are you running IPv6 internally?
