In the CLI
To verify the DMOconfiguration, execute the following command:
(host) #show wlan virtual-ap
Limitations
The following are the MLDv2 limitations:
l Controller cannot route multicast packets.
l For mobility clients mld proxy should be used.
l VLAN pool scenario stream is forwarded to clients in both the VLANs even if the client from one of the
VLANs is subscribed.
l Dynamic Multicast Optimization is applicable for wired clients in controllers.
Debugging an IPv6 Controller
ArubaOS provides the following debug commands for IPv6:
l show ipv6 global — displays if IPv6 is enabled globally or not
l show ipv6 interface — displays the configured IPv6 address, and any duplicate addresses
l show ipv6 route/show datapath route ipv6 — displays the IPv6 routing information
l show ipv6 ra status — displays the Router Advertisement status
l show Datapath session ipv6 — displays the IPv6 sessions created, and the sessions that are allowed
l show datapath frame — displays the IPv6 specific counters
You can also use the debug options such as ping and tracepath for IPv6 hosts. You can either use the WebUI or
the CLI to use the ping and tracepath options.
In the WebUI
1. To ping an IPv6 host, navigate to the Diagnostics > Network > Ping page, enter an IPv6 address, and click
Ping.
2. To trace the path of an IPv6 host, navigate to the Diagnostics > Network > Tracepath page, enter an
IPv6 address, and click Trace.
In the CLI
To ping an IPv6 host:
(host)#ping ipv6 <global-ipv6-address>
(host)#ping ipv6 interface vlan <vlan-id> <linklocal-address>
To trace the path of an IPv6 host:
(host)#tracepath <global-ipv6-address>
Provisioning an IPv6 AP
You can provision an IPv6 AP on an IPv6 controller. You can either configure a static IP address or obtain a
dynamic IPv6 address via stateless-autoconfig. The controller can act as the default gateway for the IPv6
clients, if static IPv6 routes are set on the controller.
Starting from ArubaOS 6.3, a wired client can connect to the Ethernet interface of an IPv6 enabled AP.
You can provision an IPv6 AP using the WebUI or CLI.
