TCP/IPv6 Configuration and Management Manual (G06.24+)

HP NonStop TCP/IPv6 Configuration and Management Manual—524523-008
xv
About This Manual
This manual describes how to configure and manage the NonStop TCP/IPv6
subsystem. NonStop TCP/IPv6, when run in INET mode, is a direct replacement for
Parallel Library TCP/IP.
Who Should Use This Manual
System and network managers, operators, and others who configure and manage the
NonStop TCP/IPv6 subsystem should use this manual.
How to Use This Manual
Use this manual along with the TCP/IPv6 Migration Guide to configure NonStop
TCP/IPv6 on your system.
Note. Parallel Library TCP/IP is not supported on the Integrity NonStop NS-series server.
Section Overview
Section 1, Quick Start
Provides configuration procedures for setting up and
shutting down a NonStop TCP/IPv6 environment. Use
this section if you want to get the subsystem started
without first gaining a full understanding of NonStop
TCP/IPv6, or as a reference for configuration examples.
Explanations for the examples in this section, as well as
other configuration examples are provided in Section 5,
Example Illustrations and Adding Features to the Basic
Configuration.
Section 2, Overview of NonStop
TCP/IPv6
Explains the NonStop TCP/IPv6 subsystem architecture
and features, such as round-robin filtering and single IP.
In addition, this section provides term definitions, IPv6
functionality information, and online help access.
Section 3, Maximize the Benefit
of the NonStop TCP/IPv6
Architecture
Explains the benefits of NonStop TCP/IPv6 for listening
applications.
Section 4, Plan Your IPv6
Implementation
Provides strategy suggestions for implementing IPv6 in
your networking environment.
Section 5, Example Illustrations
and Adding Features to the Basic
Configuration
Provides illustrations for the examples in Section 1,
Quick Start and provides insights into the configuration
mechanics. In addition, this section shows you how to
add features to the basic configurations shown in
Section 1, Quick Start
and how to configure the
subsystems in INET (IPv4) and INET6 (IPv6) modes.
