ADD SUBNET Command for TCP6MAN
The link-level route generated from ADD ENTRY commands have the same name
as the entry name. Entry name must start with EA.
All the above route names are reserved; that is, names starting with DDcpu,
DAcpu, DRcpu, RT, NDcpu, and EA are reserved.
When a SUBNET is added, a corresponding route to this SUBNET is added
automatically. Both the SUBNET and the route are placed in the STOPPED state.
To initiate the operation of the object, you must start the SUBNET with the START
command.
Special considerations apply for LNP environments. See LNP Guidelines on
page 6-24.
ADD SUBNET Command for TCP6MAN
The ADD SUBNET command creates a SUBNET in the NonStop TCP/IPv6
environment.
A SUBNET can be configured to support:
IPv4 only (INET mode)
IPv6 only (INET6 mode)
DUAL mode (Both IPv4 and IPv6)
An IPv6 SUBNET created by using an ADD command cannot be altered to include
IPv4 support; if you want the SUBNET to support both IPv6 and IPv4 communications,
create the SUBNET by using an ADD command and specifying the FAMILY attribute
as DUAL. See IPv6 Examples on page 8-24. To configure a SUBNET for DUAL mode
with Ethernet failover, you can add the IPv4 and IPv6 SUBNETs in the same
command. See DUAL Mode Examples on page 8-38.
To create a configured tunnel, you must add a TUNNEL-type SUBNET and then use
the ALTER SUBNET command to enable the tunnel (see Configured Tunnel SUBNET
Command Syntax on page 8-39 and the sample commands in Configured Tunnel
Example on page 8-40).
To enable automatic tunneling, you must configure an IPv4 SUBNET on each system.
You then use an ALTER SUBNET command to enable IPv6 for the configured SUBNET
and another ALTER SUBNET command to enable the SUBNET object named TUN
(see Automatic Tunneling Example on page 8-54).
Note. DUAL mode requires a previous configuration of the monitors in DUAL mode and INET6
mode requires a previous configuration of the monitors in INET6 mode.
