IP discovery overview

Discovery of IPv6 addresses
The Management application discovers both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses of devices that have the IPv6
MIB objects implemented. The Management application discovers IPv4 addresses of devices
running IPv6 that do not have IPv6 MIB support. For more information, refer to
“Defining global
setting preferences” on page 69.
NOTE
IronWare IPv6 devices must support the set of MIBs presented in Table 16 on page 44. To determine
IPv6 MIB object support on the device, refer to the release notes and user documentation for your
IPv6 product.
NOTE
Third-party IPv6 devices must support the set of MIBs presented in Table 17 on page 46.
MIB support
IP discovery requires SNMP management information base (MIB) support on the device for
management information collection. For a list of required MIBs, refer to
Table 16 on page 44 or
Table 17 on page 46.
