If communication fails using the first protocol, iLO automatically tries the second protocol.

Enable Stateless Address Auto Configuration (SLAAC)—Select this check box to enable
iLO to create IPv6 addresses for itself from router advertisement messages.

NOTE:

iLO will create its own link-local address even when this option is not selected.

Enable DHCPv6 in Stateful Mode (Address)—Select this check box to allow iLO to request
and configure IPv6 addresses provided by a DHCPv6 server.

Use DHCPv6 Rapid Commit—Select this check box to instruct iLO to use the Rapid
Commit messaging mode with the DHCPv6 server. This mode reduces DHCPv6
network traffic, but might cause problems if it is used in networks where more than
one DHCPv6 server can respond and provide addresses.

Enable DHCPv6 in Stateless Mode (Other)—Select this check box to enable iLO to request
settings for NTP and DNS service location from the DHCPv6 server.

Use DHCPv6 Supplied DNS Servers—Select this check box to use IPv6 addresses
provided by the DHCPv6 server for DNS server locations. This setting can be enabled
in addition to the IPv4 DNS server location options.

Use DHCPv6 Supplied NTP Servers—Select this check box to use IPv6 addresses
provided by the DHCPv6 server for NTP server locations. This setting can be enabled
in addition to the IPv4 NTP server location options.

NOTE:

When Enable DHCPv6 in Stateful Mode (Address) is selected, Enable DHCPv6

in Stateless Mode (Other) is always selected by default, because it is implicit in the DHCPv6
Stateful messages required between iLO and the DHCPv6 server.

Primary DNS Server, Secondary DNS Server, and Tertiary DNS Server—Enter the IPv6
addresses for the DNS service.

When DNS server locations are configured in both IPv4 and IPv6, both sources are used,
with preference given according to the iLO Client Applications use IPv6 first configuration
option, primary sources, then secondary, and then tertiary.

Enable DDNS Server Registration—Specify whether iLO registers its IPv6 address and
name with a DNS server.

Static IPv6 Address 1, Static IPv6 Address 2, Static IPv6 Address 3, and Static IPv6 Address
4—Enter up to four static IPv6 addresses and prefix lengths for iLO. Do not enter link-local
addresses.

Static Default Gateway—Enter a default IPv6 gateway address for cases in which no
router advertisement messages are present in the network.

Static Route #1, Static Route #2, and Static Route #3—Enter static IPv6 route destination
prefix and gateway address pairs. You must specify the prefix length for the destination.
Link-local addresses are not allowed for the destination, but are allowed for the gateway.

Click Submit to save the changes you made on the IPv6 Settings page.

5.

If you are finished configuring the iLO network settings on the General, IPv4, IPv6, and SNTP
tabs, click Reset to restart iLO.

It might take several minutes before you can re-establish a connection.
