Appliance Networking Interfaces Ipv6 Config

The Appliance Networking Interfaces Ipv6 Config schema provides the structure that you can use to configure IPv6 on a particular interface. Addresses can be assigned by DHCP, SLAAC or STATIC, as IPv6 permits multiple addresses per interface.

This schema was added in vSphere API 6.7.

JSON Example
{
    "dhcp": false,
    "autoconf": false,
    "addresses": [
        {
            "address": "string",
            "prefix": 0
        }
    ],
    "default_gateway": "string"
}
boolean
dhcp
Required

An address will be assigned by a DHCP server.

This property was added in vSphere API 6.7.

boolean
autoconf
Required

An address will be assigned by Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC).

This property was added in vSphere API 6.7.

addresses
Required

The list of addresses to be statically assigned.

This property was added in vSphere API 6.7.

string
default_gateway
Required

The default gateway for static IP address assignment. This configures the global IPv6 default gateway on the appliance with the specified gateway address and interface. This gateway replaces the existing default gateway configured on the appliance. However, if the gateway address is link-local, then it is added for that interface. This does not support configuration of multiple global default gateways through different interfaces.

This property was added in vSphere API 6.7.
