IPv6 management (IPv6 host support)
IPv6 Web management using HTTP and HTTPS
When you have an IPv6 management station connected to a switch with an IPv6 address applied to
the management port, you can manage the switch from a Web browser by entering one of the
following in the browser address field.
http://[<ipv6 address>]
or
https://[<ipv6 address>]
NOTE
You must enclose the IPv6 address with square brackets [ ] in order for the Web browser to work.
Restricting Web management access
You can restrict Web management access to include only management functions on a Brocade
device that is acting as an IPv6 host, or restrict access so that the Brocade host can be reached by
a specified IPv6 device.
Restricting Web management access by specifying an IPv6 ACL
You can specify an IPv6 ACL that restricts Web management access to management functions on
the device that is acting as the IPv6 host.
Example
Brocade(config)#access-list 12 deny host 2000:2383:e0bb::2/128 log
Brocade(config)#access-list 12 deny 30ff:3782::ff89/128 log
Brocade(config)#access-list 12 deny 3000:4828::fe19/128 log
Brocade(config)#access-list 12 permit any
Brocade(config)#web access-group ipv6 12
Syntax: web access-group ipv6 <ipv6 ACL name>
where <ipv6 ACL name> is a valid IPv6 ACL.
Restricting Web management access to an IPv6 host
You can restrict Web management access to the device to the IPv6 host whose IP address you
specify. No other device except the one with the specified IPv6 address can access the Web
Management Interface.
Example
Brocade(config)#web client ipv6 3000:2383:e0bb::2/128
Syntax: web client ipv6 <ipv6-address>
The <ipv6-address> you specify must be in hexadecimal format using 16-bit values between colons
as documented in RFC 2373.
