For its communications environment, Systemwalker Runbook Automation can operate in IPv4 and IPv6, as well as mixed IPv4 and IPv6 environments.
The following diagram shows the connections in a mixed environment system configuration.
Systemwalker Runbook Automation can operate in the following environments:
IPv4 single-stack environment
IPv6 single-stack environment
IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack environment
Note that IPv6 single-stack environments are not supported by the Management Server. If you use Systemwalker Runbook Automation in an IPv6 environment, operate a Management Server in an IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack environment.
In an IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack environment, Systemwalker Runbook Automation determines the address to be used according to the settings of the operating system.
However, when the collected configuration information is to be used, Systemwalker Runbook Automation determines the address to be used according to the settings of definition file as a priority (By default, priority is given to used IPv4 addresses).
The following addresses can be used in Systemwalker Runbook Automation:
Global unicast addresses
Unique local unicast addresses
