HP iLO 3 Scripting and Command Line Guide
addresses specified in the script will be in use by iLO after the script successfully completes. All
static address entries on iLO can be cleared by specifying a single blank IPV6_ADDRESS entry.
• ADDR_SOURCE may be included for ease in turning around GET_NETWORK_SETTINGS
output as input to MOD_NETWORK_SETTINGS. However, if the value is not STATIC the
entire entry is ignored.
• ADDR_STATUS may be included for ease in turning using GET_NETWORK_SETTINGS output
as input to MOD_NETWORK_SETTINGS. The value is always ignored as input.
IPV6_STATIC_ROUTE_[1:3] is used to configure static routes for IPv6 on iLO.
• IPV6_DEST specifies the destination address prefix, limited by PREFIXLEN. Must be a valid
literal IPv6 address in string form.
• IPV6_GATEWAY specifies the IPv6 address to which the prefixes should be routed. Must be
a valid literal IPv6 address in string form.
• ADDR_STATUS is used for ease in turning GET_NETWORK_SETTINGS output around as input
to MOD_NETWORK_SETTINGS, but is always ignored as input.
NOTE: To clear a single static route, enter blank addresses (“::”) for IPV6_DEST and
IPV6_GATEWAY, with “0” (zero) PREFIXLEN.
IPV6_PRIM_DNS_SERVER, IPV6_SEC_DNS_SERVER, and IPV6_TER_DNS_SERVER are used to
specify primary, secondary, and tertiary IPv6 DNS server addresses. Values must be valid literal
IPv6 addresses in string form. These addresses are used in addition to the IPv4 DNS server
addresses. Clear address entries by specifying blank IPv6 addresses (“::”). When iLO Client
applications are configured to prefer IPv6 (see IPV6_PREFFERED_PROTOCOL) the order of use will
be:
1. IPV6_PRIM_DNS_SERVER
2. PRIM_DNS_SERVER
3. IPV6_SEC_DNS_SERVER
4. SEC_DNS_SERVER
5. IPV6_TER_DNS_SERVER
6. TER_DNS_SERVER
When IPv4 protocol is preferred by iLO clients, the order of IPv6 and IPv4 is reversed for each of
primary, secondary, and then tertiary settings respectively.
IPV6_DEFAULT_GATEWAY allows you to add an IPv6 address to the default gateway address list
maintained by the ILO network stack. This is primarily for environments when no RA (router
advertised) messages are present on the network. The value must be a valid literal IPv6 address
in string form. Clear address entry by specifying a blank IPv6 address (“::”).
IPV6_ADDR_AUTOCFG enables or disables RFC 4862 SLAAC (Stateless Address Auto
Configuration). Value must be either Y (enabled) or N (disabled). When enabled, iLO creates IPv6
addresses for itself from RA prefixes as appropriate. When disabled, only the link-local address
is automatically configured. Router advertisements are still monitored but not used for SLAAC
address creation.
IPV6_REG_DDNS_SERVER enables or disables automatic DNS server IPv6 address registration.
Value must be either Y (enabled) or N (disabled). When enabled, iLO attempts to register AAAA
and PTR records for its IPv6 addresses with the DNS server.
IPV6_PREFERRED_PROTOCOL enables or disables using IPv6 addresses as preferred. Value must
be either Y (enabled) or N (disabled). When enabled, iLO client applications use IPv6 service
addresses before IPv4 service addresses when both are configured. Client applications affected
by this setting currently are the DNS name resolver and SNTP. In SNTP, if FQDNs are configured,
and the DNS name resolver returns both A (IPv4) and AAAA (IPv6) records, the addresses are
tried in order specified by this setting. For the DNS name resolver, if both IPv4 and IPv6 DNS
