Usage
Infomation
• SAA can configure up to two addresses. If any preferred prefix or valid timers
time out, the corresponding address are deprecated or removed. If an address
is removed due to a time-out, an address from the current unused prefix is used
to create a new address. If there are no remaining prefixes, the software waits
to receive a new prefix from the RA.
• If auto-configuration is enabled, all IPv6 addresses on that management
interface are auto-configured. Manual and auto-configurations are not
supported on a single management interface.
• Removing auto-configuration removes all auto-configured IPv6 addresses and
the link-local IPv6 address from that management interface.
• IPv6 addresses on a single management interface cannot be members of the
same subnet.
• IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces across a platform must be
members of the same subnet.
• IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces should not match the
virtual IP address and should not be in the same subnet as the virtual IP.
