Configure IPv6 on the Control Station
Starting with version 6.0 of the software, the Control Station supports IPv6 through
a dual-stacking of IPv4 and IPv6 network addresses. To implement and manage
this feature, a new CLI command, nas_cs, has been introduced to manage the
configuration properties of the Control Station.
Note: For more information about nas_cs and configuring IPv6 on the Control Station, refer
to EMC VNX Command Line Interface Reference for File.
To set the IPv6 address off a primary Control Station, it must be implemented
alongside IPv4. This dual-stacking of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses is done through CLI
only.
Action
To set the IPv6 address for the primary Control Station, use this command syntax:
# nas_cs -set -ip6address <ipv6_address[/prefix_length]> -ip6gateway
<ipv6_gateway>
where:
<ipv6_addr[/prefix_length]>= the IPv6 network address of the primary Control Station. TheIPv6
address must be a valid address. The /prefix_length option sets the integer value, between 8 and
128, for the prefix length of the IPv6 address of the primary Control Station.
<ipv6_gateway>]= the IPv6 network address of the gateway machine for the primary Control
Station on the network. The IPv6 address must be a valid address.
Example:
To set the IPv6 address and the IPv6 gateway for the primary Control Station, type:
$ nas_cs -set -ip6address 2002:ac18:af02:f4:20e:cff:fe6e:d524/64 -
ip6gateway 2002:ac18:af02:f4:20e:cff:fe6e:d527
Output
