IPv6 Configuration settings
Global IPv6 Configuration
Client Applications use IPv6 first
This option specifies which protocol Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager is tried first when accessing a client application. It
is useful when both IPv4 and IPv6 service addresses are configured for Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager client
applications. This setting also applies to lists of addresses received from the name resolver when using FQDNs to
configure NTP.
•
Enable this option if you want Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager to use IPv6 first.
•
Disable this option if you want Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager to use IPv4 first.
If communication fails when attempting to use the first protocol, Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager automatically tries the
second protocol.
This option is enabled by default.
IPv6 Configuration
Enable IPv6 in Auto Mode
Enable this option to configure Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager to use an IPv6 DHCP server (if found). If no IPv6 DHCP
server is available, IPv6 automatically falls back to using SLAAC. This option is enabled by default.
Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager creates its own link-local address even when this option is not enabled.
