Global IPv6 Configuration
- Client Applications use IPv6 first
This option specifies which protocol Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager is tried first when accessing a client application. It is useful when both IPv4 and IPv6 service addresses are configured for Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager client applications. This setting also applies to lists of addresses received from the name resolver when using FQDNs to configure NTP.
Enable this option if you want Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager to use IPv6 first.
Disable this option if you want Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager to use IPv4 first.
If communication fails when attempting to use the first protocol, Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager automatically tries the second protocol.
This option is enabled by default.
