Re: reg: IP6 based Static IP Configuration in ISCSI

["Ye, Ting" <ting.ye@intel.com>]

Hi Siva,

No, it is not correct.

In iSCSI UI, if you choose IP6 mode, you still have chance to use static address. Just NOT click the checkbox of "Enable DHCP".

Thanks,
Ting

Ting,

Let me clarify in detail. 

When we have IP4 mode selection in ISCSI we can set both Initiator and Target with Static Addresses. 
But if we choose the IP6 mode by default no setup options available to choose static and it take DHCP as default. In this case even if we configure IP6 using IfConfig6, it will override by ISCSI. Is my understanding correct?

Thanks
Siva

Hi Siva,

We don't have such plan as I known. For IPv6, we leave it to IP6 driver to perform source address selection to best match the iSCSI target address.
You could use ifconfig6 to set static IP6 address before you configure iSCSI.

Thanks,
Ting

Hello,

At present in the ISCSI configuration we are able to specify the Static IP configuration for IP4 protocol. Is there any plan to support IP6 static IP configuration in ISCSI Configuration?
