4.Under Firewall Policies, click Add. From Choose from Configured Policies, select the “ipv6-web-only” IPv6 session policy from the list.

5.Click Done to add the policy to the user role.

6.Click Apply to apply this configuration.

To assign an IPv6 policy to a user role via the command-line interface, issue the following command in config mode:

user-role web-guest

access-list session ipv6-web-only position 1

Understanding DHCPv6 Passthrough/Relay

The controller forwards DHCPv6 requests from IPv6 clients to the external IPv6 router. On the external IPv6 router, you must configure the controller’s IP address as the DHCP relay. You do not need to configure an IP helper address on the controller to forward DHCPv6 requests.

Managing IPv6 User Addresses

Viewing or Deleting User Entries

To view or delete IPv6 user entries via the WebUI:

1.Navigate to the Monitoring > Controller > Clients page.

2.Click the IPv6 tab to display IPv6 clients.

3.To delete an entry in the IPv6 client display, click the radio button to the left of the client and then click Disconnect.

To view user entries for IPv6 clients using the command line interface, use the show user-tablecommand in enable mode. To delete a user entry for an IPv6 client, access the CLI in config mode and use the aaa ipv6 user delete command. For example:

aaa ipv6 user delete 2002:d81f:f9f0:1000:e409:9331:1d27:ef44

Understanding User Roles

An IPv6 user or a client can inherit the corresponding IPv4 roles. A user or client entry on the user table will contain the user or client’s IPv4 and IPv6 entries. After captive-portal authentication, a IPv4 client can acquire a different role. This role is also updated on the client’s IPv6 entry in the user table.

Viewing Datapath Statistics for IPv6 Sessions

To view datapath session statistics for individual IPv6 sessions, access the command-line interface in enable mode and issue the command show datapath session ipv6. To display the user entries in the datapath, access the command-line interface in enable mode, and issue the command show datapath user ipv6. For details on each of these commands and the output they display, refer to the ArubaOSCommand Line Reference Guide.

Understanding IPv6 Exceptions and Best Practices

This release of ArubaOS does not support the following functions for IPv6 clients:

The controller offers limited routing services to IPv6 clients. It is highly recommended to use an external IPv6 router for a complete routing experience (dynamic routing).

The controller does not perform network address translation on IPv6 addresses.

Voice over IP is not supported for IPv6 clients.
