View or Modify an SP IPv6 Address
To view or modify the IPv6 address currently assigned to the Oracle ILOM
SP:
Note -
You can also change network settings using the BIOS Setup Utility.
-
Log in to Oracle ILOM using one of the following procedures:
Note -
If you log in to Oracle ILOM using an Ethernet connection, after you
modify the network settings, your connection will be terminated, and you
will have to log in again using the new settings.
-
To navigate to the /SP/network/ipv6 directory, use
the cd command:
-> cd /SP/network/ipv6.
-
To view the IPv6 network settings configured on the device, type the
show command.
For example, see the following sample output values for the IPv6
properties on a server SP device.
-> show
/SP/network/ipv6
Targets:
Properties:
state = enabled
autoconfig = stateless
dhcpv6_server_duid = (none)
link_local_ipaddress = 2001:DB8:n:n
static_ipaddress = ::/128
ipgateway = 2001:DB8:n:n
pending_static_ipaddress = ::/128
dynamic_ipaddress_1 2001:DB8:n:n
Commands:
cd

To configure an IPv6 auto-configuration option, use the
set command to specify the following
auto-configuration property values:
|
|
|
|
state
|
set state=enabled
|
The IPv6 network state is enabled by default. To
enable an IPv6 auto-configuration option, set this state
to enabled.
|
|
autoconfig
|
set
autoconfig=<value>
|
Specify this command followed by the autoconfig value
you want to set.
Options include:
-
stateless (default setting)
Automatically assigns IP address learned from
IPv6 network router.
-
dhcpv6_stateless
Automatically assigns DNS information learned
from the DHCPv6 server.
-
dhcpv6_stateful
Automatically assigns the IPv6 address learned
from the DHCPv6 server.
-
disabled
Disables all auto-configuration property
values and sets the read-only property value for
Link Local address.
|
|
Note -
The IPv6 configuration options listed in the above table take effect
after they are set, that is, you do not need to commit these changes
under the /network target.
Note -
You can enable the stateless auto-configuration
option to run at the same time the option for
dhcpv6_stateless is enabled or the option for
dhcpv6_stateful is enabled. However, the
auto-configuration options for dhcpv6_stateless and
dhcpv6_stateful should not be enabled to run at
the same time.
-
To set a static IPv6 address, specify the following property types:
|
|
|
Property:
state
Set Property
Value:set
state=enabled
|
The IPv6 network state is enabled by default. To
enable a static IP address set this state to
enabled.
|
|
Property:
pending_static_ipaddress
Set Property Value:
set
pending_static_ipaddress/<subnet
mask length_in_bits>
|
Type this command followed by the property value for
the static IPv6 address and subnet netmask that you want
to assign to the device.IPv6 address example:
2001:DB8:n:n
|
|
Property:
commitpending
Set Property Value:
set
commitpending=true
|
Type set commitpending=true to
commit changes.
|
|
Note -
Assigning a new static IP address to the device will end all active
Oracle ILOM sessions to the device. To log in again to Oracle ILOM, you
will need to create a new session using the newly assigned IP
address.
