Transition Networks ION x222x / x32xx User Guide ION IPv6 Configuration Considerations This section provides IPv6 configuration prerequisites and restrictions. For the latest feature information and caveats, see the release notes for your particular device and software release. The prerequisites and restrictions below apply to all ION models unless otherwise noted. 1. An ION NID is a L2 device, which is deployed at access edge. The IP stack only provides Management for the NID cards. As such, the following features are not implemented in ION: IPv6 Anycast, MLD v1/v2, MLD v1/v2 snooping. 2. ION supports one Link‐local IPv6 address which is read‐only, and one global address. The Link‐local address is configured on an ION device using the link‐local prefix FE80:: /10 (1111 1110 10) and the interface identifier in the modified EUI‐64 format. The aggregatable global address can be config‐ ured using the static method, DHCPv6, and stateless auto‐configuration. 3. DNS address cannot be saved when you change mode from DHCPv6 to Static (i.e., when changing from DHCPv6 to Static, only the IPv6 address can be saved). 4. Windows XP has very limited IPv6 support which has been found to be unstable when interoperat‐ ing with an ION IPv6 system. Windows Vista or above and the latest Linux are recommend for cus‐ tomer use with ION IPv6 systems. 5. The ION Web/CLI/FP interfaces use common MIB operation to get/set configurations, while the IONMM uses the AgentX protocol to communication with the SIC cards. This mechanism can cause the specific failure reason of set operation in device can't get back to the UI. The TDM card port loopback setting displays as failed, because either the other port is already in loopback mode or an internal error occurred. 6. In ION products, only these input string fields can support internal space character entry: a. System Contact b. System Location c. Circuit ID d. the filename used for backup‐restore. 7. The ION Web/CLI/ supports these characters: a. Web/FP/CLI only supports ASCII printable characters. Specifically, characters combination which can pass the test of this Regex is supported: /^[a‐zA‐Z\d This Regex allows "space". (Where "Regex" is a regular expression ‐ a sequence of characters with specific meanings, e.g., in Perl, other flavors vary). b. Some MIBs do not support the "space" character as a valid entry. 8. When you try to run CLI commands by executing a script or pasting strings, some commands need a 'sleep' period between them; otherwise these commands can not be executed successfully: a. Add vlan‐db. b. Add fwddb After adding a VLAN or FWDDB by script, add a 3 second sleep in the script before adding another VLAN or FWDDB. 9. The SOAM MD name can not be modified once created. 10. The maximum number of ION System Users is 64. 33472 Rev. J https://www.transition.com Page 108 of 700
