Enabling/Disabling IPv6 Support (ipv6-state)
You use the ipv6-state command to:
- Enable IPv6 support for the all SGMs in the 61000/41000 Security System.
- Disable IPv6 support for the all SGMs in the 61000/41000 Security System.
- Show the IPv6 support status for all SGMs in the 61000/41000 Security System.
To complete the configuration you must reboot all SGMs at the same time. If you have a Chassis High Availability environment, you can enable IPv6 and reboot the SGMs one Chassis at a time. This feature makes it possible for network traffic to continue during configuration procedure.

To Enable IPv6 Support on a single Chassis system:
- Log into the 61000/41000 Security System.
- Run:
> set ipv6-state on - Run
reboot -b all This reboots all SGMs.
- Do the instructions on the screen.
- Run
> show ipv6-state Make sure that IPv6 is enabled for all SGMs.
To Enable IPv6 on a dual Chassis System:
This procedure lets you reboot one Chassis at a time to prevent unnecessary downtime.
- Log into the 61000/41000 Security System.
- Run:
> set ipv6-state on
- Reboot all SGMs on the Standby Chassis:
Run: > reboot -b <standby_chassis_name>
- When the reboot completes, run this command on the Active Chassis:
> asg chassis_admin -c <active_chassis_id> down
This causes to the Active Chassis to fail over to the Standby. The failover closes all active connections, which must be re-established.
- Reboot all SGMs on the newly designated Standby Chassis:
Run:
> reboot -b <new_standby_chassis_name>
