Updated Usage Information section.

• Up to two addresses can be configured by SAA. If any preferred prefix or valid timers
time out, the corresponding address will be deprecated or removed respectively. If an
address is removed due to a time out, an address from the current unused prefix is
used to create a new address. If there are no remaining prefixes, the software will wait
to receive a new prefix from the RA.
• If auto-configuration is enabled, all IPv6 addresses on that management interface are
auto-configured. Manual and auto-configurations are not supported on a single
management interface.
• Removing auto-configuration removes all auto-configured IPv6 addresses and the link-
local IPv6 address from that management interface.
• IPv6 addresses on a single management interface cannot be members of the same
subnet.
• IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces across a platform must be
members of the same subnet.
• IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces should not match the virtual IP
address and should not be in the same subnet as the virtual IP.
Enter the IPv6 address in the x:x:x:x::x format followed by the prefix
length in the /x format. The range is /0 to /128.
NOTE: The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of
zeros.
