    Anyone have come across any document for the controller and Virtual controller for IPv6 and IPv4 conexistence?

    ArubaOS has full IPv6 support, but InstantOS has not. 

     

    This is not an official list, this is what I have come across while working with these products.

     

    ArubaOS:

    - IPv6 management

    - AP communication over IPv6

    - IPv6 RADIUS

    - Learning of client IPv6 addresses for NDP proxy (beware: currently still max 5 IPv4/IPv6 addresses per MAC address)

    - Broadcast filtering does not break IPv6

    - IPv6 SLAAC router advertisements will be converted to unicast when you enable VLAN pooling on a Virtual-AP profile. This means IPv6 SLAAC will not break when you enable VLAN pooling and/or dynamic VLAN assignment.

    - IPv6 firewall rules and IPv6 captive portal

     

    InstantOS:

    - Only forwarding of IPv6 packets works

    - No IPv6 management

    - No learning of client IPv6 addresses

    - Enabling broadcast filtering will break IPv6 SLAAC

    - No IPv6 firewall rules

    - No conversion of IPv6 SLAAC router advertisements to unicast; thus when you use dynamic VLAN assignment IPv6 SLAAC will break
