The following section describes limitations of HP-UX 11i v2
IPv6 in TOUR 2.0 transport. These limitations also
exist in base (default) HP-UX 11i v2 IPv6 transport.
setparms Not Enhanced for IPv6 Configuration |
 |
On HP-UX 11i v2, the setparms utility
has not been enhanced to support IPv6 configuration.
Multihomed
Host Limitation |
|
In the absence of a router that is advertising prefixes, no
more than one interface can be configured with IPv6 addresses on
a host with multiple physical network interfaces. If multiple physical
interfaces are configured with IPv6 addresses, and if there is no
Router Advertisement received on any interfaces, the host has no
way of knowing which interface to send packets out on. If packets
are sent out on the interface that is on a different link than the
destination node, then communication will fail. This configuration
is neither recommended nor supported.
Distributed
File System Limitations |
|
NIS+, NIS, and NFS are currently
not supported over IPv6.
SAM
Limitation |
|
SAM has
not been enhanced to support the tunneling enhancements available
with TOUR 2.0. TOUR 2.0 tunneling configuration must be done by
editing the /etc/rc.config.d/netconf-ipv6 file or by using the ifconfig command.
Socket
Caching Limitation |
|
Socket caching does
not support IPv6.
