DHCPv6 settings
iLO Client Applications use IPv6 first
When both IPv4 and IPv6 service addresses are configured for iLO client applications, this
option specifies which protocol iLO tries first when accessing a client application. This setting
also applies to lists of addresses received from the name resolver when using FQDNs to
configure NTP.
• Select this check box if you want iLO to use IPv6 first.
• Clear this check box if you want iLO to use IPv4 first.
If communication fails using the first protocol, iLO automatically tries the second protocol.
Enable Stateless Address Auto Configuration (SLAAC)
Select this check box to enable iLO to create IPv6 addresses for itself from router
advertisement messages.
iLO creates its own link-local address even when this option is not selected.
Enable DHCPv6 in Stateful Mode (Address)
Select this check box to allow iLO to request and configure IPv6 addresses provided by a
DHCPv6 server.
• Use DHCPv6 Rapid Commit—Select this check box to instruct iLO to use the Rapid
Commit messaging mode with the DHCPv6 server. This mode reduces DHCPv6 network
traffic, but might cause problems when used in networks where more than one DHCPv6
server can respond and provide addresses.
Enable DHCPv6 in Stateless Mode (Other)
Select this check box to enable iLO to request settings for NTP and DNS service location from
the DHCPv6 server.
• Use DHCPv6 Supplied Domain Name—Select this check box to use the DHCPv6 server-
supplied domain name.
• Use DHCPv6 Supplied DNS Servers—Select this check box to use IPv6 addresses
provided by the DHCPv6 server for DNS server locations. This setting can be enabled at
the same time as the IPv4 DNS server location options.
• Use DHCPv6 Supplied NTP Servers—Select this check box to use IPv6 addresses
provided by the DHCPv6 server for NTP server locations. This setting can be enabled at
