Enable IPv6-only Mode
When you deploy a scanner appliance, it works in IPv4+v6 mode by default. You have the option to enable IPv6-only mode. When you enable IPv6-only mode, all communications use IPv6 addresses instead of IPv4 addresses, and you can see additional menu options in the Scanner Console for IPv6 network and proxy configurations.
Reset to IPv6-Only Mode
Perform the following steps to reset the IPv6-Only Mode:
- Reset the network configuration to use IPv6-only mode.
- Access the Scanner Console, select Reset network settings, and then Reset to IPv6 only mode.
- Type Y to confirm (or type N to cancel).
Configure Network and Proxy Settings
This setting is optional. In IPv6-only mode, you can configure the scanner network interface with a manual or automatic IPv6 configuration. This mode supports proxy and VLAN configurations, which work the same whether you are in IPv4+v6 mode or IPv6-only mode. Split network configuration is NOT supported in IPv6-only mode.
