Description

Use the USEIPV6 parameter to force the use of Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) by Oracle GoldenGate for TCP/IP connections. By default, Oracle GoldenGate uses IPv6 in dual-stack mode but falls back to IPv4, and only then to IPv6. USEIPV6 eliminates the IPv4 fallback step. The order of socket selection becomes:

  • IPv6 dual-stack

  • IPv6

When USEIPV6 is used, the entire network in which Oracle GoldenGate operates must be IPv6 compatible.
