This section describes an example configuration procedure of the network shown in the diagram below.
The xx, yy in the figure below are assigned automatically by the automatic address configuration.
[HOST-A]
1) Setting up the system
1-1) Create /etc/inet/ndpd.conf file and set the followings:
ifdefault AdvSendAdvertisements true # Every interface sends a router advertisement. prefix fec0:1::0/64 sha0 # sha0 sends Prefix "fec0:1::0/64". |
Note
In the Solaris 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.
For details on /etc/inet/ndpd.conf, refer to the Solaris manual.
1-2) Create /etc/hostname6.hme0 and /etc/hostname6.hme1 files as an empty file.
2) Reboot
Run the following command to reboot the system. Make sure hme0 and hme1 are enabled as IPv6 interfaces after rebooting the system.
/usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i6 -g0
3) Creation of virtual interface
/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create inet6 -n sha0 -m t -t hme0,hme1
4) Activation of virtual interface
/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/strhanet
[HOST-B]
1) Setting up the system
1-1) Create /etc/hostname6.hme0 and /etc/hostname6.hme1 files as an empty file.
2) Reboot
Run the following command to reboot the system. Make sure hme0 and hme1 are enabled as IPv6 interfaces after rebooting the system.
/usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i6 -g0
3) Creation of virtual interface
/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create inet6 -n sha0 -m t -t hme0,hme1
4) Activation of virtual interface
/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/strhanet
