Ipv6 Support For Ies Ip Interfaces (Applicable For Only Access-Uplink Mode); Vrrp Support For Ies Ip Interfaces - Alcatel-Lucent 7210 SAS M Service Manual

IPv6 support for IES IP interfaces (applicable for only access-
uplink mode)
NOTE: IPv6 addressing is supported for IES IP interfaces in access-uplink mode. IPv6 is not
supported with IES IP interfaces in network mode.
In access-uplink mode, IES IP interfaces associated with access-uplink SAPs support IPv6
addressing. IPv6 can be used for in-band management of the node using the IES IP interface.
NOTE: IPv6 IES IP interfaces on access-uplink SAPs is supported only on 7210 SAS-M in
access-uplink mode.
IPv4 and IPv6 route table lookup entries are shared. Before adding routes for IPv6 destinations,
route entries in the routed lookup table needs to be allocated for IPv6 addresses. This can be done
using the CLI command config> system> resource-profile> max-ipv6-routes. This command
allocates route entries for /64 IPv6 prefix route lookups. The system does not allocate any IPv6
route entries by default and user needs to allocate some resources before using IPv6. For the
command to take effect the node must be rebooted after making the change. For more information,
see the example below and the 7210 SAS Basic System Configuration Guide.
A separate route table is used for IPv6 /128-bit prefix route lookup. A limited amount of IPv6 /128
prefixes route lookup entries is supported. The software enables lookups in this table by default (in
other words no user configuration is required to enable Ipv6 /128-bit route lookup).
NOTE: IPv6 interfaces are allowed to be created without allocating IPv6 route entries.
NOTE: IPv6 is not supported for IES IP interfaces associated with access SAPs.
Following features and restrictions is applicable for IPv6 IES IP interfaces:

VRRP support for IES IP interfaces

NOTE: VRRP for IPv4 is supported for IES IP interfaces in network mode only. VRRP is not
supported in access-uplink mode. VRRP for IPv6 is not supported.
7210-SAS M Services Guide
IPv6 interfaces supports only static routing.
Only port-based ingress QoS policies are supported.
IPv6 filter policies can be used on SAP ingress and egress.
Routing protocols, such as OSPFv3, and others are not supported.
A limited amount of IPv6 /128 prefixes route lookup entries is supported on 7210 SAS-M.
VRRP is not supported.
