The web console allows you to configure an IPv6 address or an IPv6 address range. The following are some configuration guidelines.
  • Apex One (Mac) accepts standard IPv6 address presentations.
    For example:
    2001:0db7:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334
    2001:db7:85a3:0:0:8a2e:370:7334
    2001:db7:85a3::8a2e:370:7334
    ::ffff:192.0.2.128
  • Apex One (Mac) also accepts link-local IPv6 addresses, such as:
    fe80::210:5aff:feaa:20a2
    WARNING
    WARNING
    Exercise caution when specifying a link-local IPv6 address because even though Apex One (Mac) can accept the address, it might not work as expected under certain circumstances. For example, agents cannot update from an update source if the source is on another network segment and is identified by its link-local IPv6 address.
  • When the IPv6 address is part of a URL, enclose the address in square brackets.
  • For IPv6 address ranges, a prefix and prefix length are usually required.
