■ IPv6 Address Notation
Since the IPv6 address is 128-bit and extremely long, this address is displayed using "xxxx", which describes
16-bit in hexadecimals as being one block that is separated by colons (":").
xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx
• Use 0 - ffff (FFFF) (hexadecimal, alphanumeric characters) for inputting an IPv6 address.
• The current setting is displayed with 0 - ffff (hexadecimal, "a" - "f" are lowercase letters)
• Up to 128-bit
• The first 64-bit (prefix) of the link local address is fixed to "fe80::".
The following three abbreviation methods are available for IPv6 addresses:
(1) Omission of the first "0" of a block that follows consecutive zeros.
(2) Replacement of "0000" blocks with "0".
(3) Replacement of a block with consecutive zeros by "::" is performed only once.
IP Address
Input the IP address that is to be displayed.
ETERNUS DX Disk storage system compares the input IP address and the existing IP
address by starting from the first letter. The iSCSI hosts with the same IP address are
displayed.
An abbreviation for the IPv6 address can be used.
When not using the IP address for filtering, leave this item blank.
Alias Name
Input the Alias Name that is to be displayed.
iSCSI hosts matching or partially matching the input Alias Name are displayed.
When not using the Alias Name for filtering, leave this item blank.
Filter Description
The following IP addresses cannot be specified:
• Link local addresses (the address starts with "fe80::") for which all of the values for the low 64-bit are "0"
• Connect IP addresses (*1) for which the first 3-bit are not "001" or the first 7-bit are not "1111110"
*1: The connect IP address indicates either a "global address", "unique local address", or "6to4 address". Note that
this limitation is not applied when specifying IP addresses for "Common Name". This limitation also does not
apply when specifying "Subject Alt Name" for "11.2.3.15 Create Self-signed SSL Certificate" (page 787) or
"11.2.3.16 Create Key/CSR" (page 790).
[Example] 2001:1000:0120:0000:0000:0123:0000:0000
2001:1000:120:0000:0000:123:0000:0000
[Example] 2001:1000:120:0000:0000:123:0000:0000
2001:1000:120:0:0:123:0:0
[Example] 2001:1000:120:0:0:123:0:0
2001:1000:120::123:0:0 is OK
2001:1000:120::123:: is not allowed
(Replacement of a block with consecutive zeros by "::" is allowed only once.)
