9.8.3 IPv6 Limitations
IPv6 has the following configuration restrictions:
•
You can provision an NE as IPv6 enabled only if the node is a SOCKS-enabled or firewall-enabled
GNE/ENE.
•
IPSec is not supported.
•
OSPF/RIP cannot be enabled on the LAN interface if NE is provisioned as an IPv6 node.
•
Static route/Firewall/proxy tunnel provisioning is applicable only to IPv4 address even if the IPv6
is enabled.
•
In secure mode, IPv6 is supported only on the rear Ethernet interface. IPv6 is not supported on the
front port.
•
ONS 15600 platforms do not support IPv6 on front port of TSC cards. IPv6 is supported only on the
rear Ethernet interface.
•
ONS platforms use NAT-PT internally for providing IPv6 native support. NAT-PT uses the IPv4
address range 128.x.x.x for packet translation. Do not use the 128.x.x.x address range when you
enable IPv6 feature.
