IPv6 address:
If IPv6 auto-configuration is not enabled, this field is used to define the IPv6
address of the probe.
IPv6 prefix:
If IPv6 auto-configuration is not enabled, this field is used to define the IPv6
prefix of the probe (corresponding to netmask for IPv4).
IPv6 Gateway:
Required to allow clients with an address outside the probe subnets to
access the probe (HTTP, FTP, SSH, TELNET, SNMP). It is also required
for the probe to access an NTP server or DNS server with IPv6 address
outside the probe’s subnets. If IPv6 auto-configuration is enabled, this field
is disabled.
Note that auto-configuration should only be enabled for one of the Ethernet ports to avoid possible
conflicts.
IPv6 settings – data/video SFP (eth2)
Enable IPv6: If IPv6 is enabled, the probe will use IPv6 for management on eth2.
Enable IPv6autoconf:
If IPv6 auto-configuration is enabled, the probe will receive IPv6 address,
IPv6 prefix and gateway address from a network router when booting.
IPv6 address:
If IPv6 auto-configuration is not enabled, this field is used to define the IPv6
address of the probe.
IPv6 prefix:
If IPv6 auto-configuration is not enabled, this field is used to define the IPv6
prefix of the probe (corresponding to netmask for IPv4).
IPv6 Gateway:
Required to allow clients with an address outside the probe subnets to
access the probe (HTTP, FTP, SSH, TELNET, SNMP). It is also required
for the probe to access an NTP server or DNS server with IPv6 address
outside the probe’s subnets. If IPv6 auto-configuration is enabled, this field
is disabled.
IPv6 settings – management (eth1)
Enable IPv6:
If IPv6 is enabled, the probe will use the management port for IPv6 manage-
ment
Enable IPv6autoconf:
If IPv6 auto-configuration is enabled, the probe will receive IPv6 address,
IPv6 prefix and gateway address from a network router when booting.
IPv6 address:
If IPv6 auto-configuration is not enabled, this field is used to define the IPv6
address of the probe.
IPv6 prefix:
If IPv6 auto-configuration is not enabled, this field is used to define the IPv6
prefix of the probe (corresponding to netmask for IPv4).
