Configuring IPv6 in Qumulo Core

This section explains how to configure IPv6 in Qumulo Core by configuring the default gateway and maximum transmission unit (MTU).

Note

The Qumulo Core Web UI doesn't show the default gateway for IPv6.
As for IPv4, you can configure one untagged IPv6 network by using VLAN 0 or multiple tagged networks by using VLAN 1-4094 statically.
It is possible to configure an IPv4 network alongside an IPv6 network on any VLAN.
Currently, Qumulo Core doesn't support VPN connections by using IPv6.

To Configure IPv6 by Using the qq CLI

To specify the default gateway for IPv4 and IPv6 traffic, run the qq network_mod_interface command. For example:

qq network_mod_interface --default-gateway 192.168.0.1 \
  --default-gateway-ipv6 2001:db8:60e0:7352:e9d2:e180:e7e8:cdb8 \
  --mtu 1500

To specify IPv6 addresses for your Qumulo cluster, run the qq network_mod_network command to modify the default network configuration. For example:

qq network_mod_network --network-id 1 \
  --assigned-by STATIC \
  --netmask 2001:db8::/64 \
  --ip-ranges 2001:db8:0:0:1::1-2001:db8:0:0:1::ffff \
  --floating-ip-range 2001:db8:0:0:2::1-2001:db8:0:0:2::ffff \
  --dns-servers 2001:db8:8560:26eb:19f2:fe28:c49f:7f4c \
    2001:db8:2ebf:276a:375:a593:5c3a:d4c4 \
  --dns-search-domains example.com

Note
For IPv6 networks, you can specify subnets by using CIDR notation (for example, 2001:DB8/32) or by using a standard netmask (for example, ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::).

To verify the configuration and confirm the assigned IPv6 addresses, uses the qq network_poll command.
(Optional) to check that the assigned IPv6 addresses are accessible, run the ping command with the IPv6 address of a node in your cluster.
