NETWORKING=yes NETWORKING_IPV6=yes IPV6TO4INIT=no VLAN=yes |
2) Reboot
Run the following command to reboot the system. After rebooting the system, verify eth0.3, eth0.5, eth1.4 and eth1.6 are active using ifconfig command.
/sbin/shutdown -r now
3) Setting a subnet mask
/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetmask create -i 192.168.10.0 -m 255.255.255.0 /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetmask create -i 192.168.20.0 -m 255.255.255.0
4) Creating of IPv4 virtual interface
/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha0 -m t -i 192.168.10.1 -t eth0.3,eth1.4 /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha1 -m t -i 192.168.20.1 -t eth0.5,eth1.6
5) Creating of IPv6 virtual interface
/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create inet6 -n sha0 -m t -t eth0.3,eth1.4 /opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create inet6 -n sha1 -m t -t eth0.5,eth1.6
6) Setting up IPv6 routers
Create /etc/radvd.conf file and set the followings.
interface sha0 { AdvSendAdvert on; # Sending router advertisements MinRtrAdvInterval 3; MaxRtrAdvInterval 10; prefix fec0:1::0/64 # Sending Prefix fec0:1::0/64 from sha0 { AdvOnLink on; AdvAutonomous on; AdvRouterAddr on; }; }; interface sha1 { AdvSendAdvert on; # Sending router advertisements MinRtrAdvInterval 3; MaxRtrAdvInterval 10; prefix fec0:2::0/64 # Sending Prefix fec0:2::0/64 from sha1 { AdvOnLink on; AdvAutonomous on; AdvRouterAddr on; }; }; |
Note
In the server that runs Fast switching mode, configure two or more router as IPv6 router. If the IPv6 router breaks down, it cannot use site-local address to communicate.
To prevent this, it is recommended to setup at least two IPv6 routers. Depending on the version of radvd, kernel parameter(net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1) must be defined in /etc/sysctl.conf file.
For details on /etc/radvd.conf, refer to the radvd.conf(5), radvd(8) manual.

/sbin/shutdown -r now
