Hello Ting, As you recommended with shell based IP assignment we are able to use the IP6 Static IP bases ISCSI connection.
Thanks for your detailed clarification. -Siva -----Original Message----- From: Ye, Ting [mailto:ting...@intel.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 4, 2018 1:17 PM To: Sivaraman Nainar; edk2-devel@lists.01.org Subject: RE: reg: IP6 based Static IP Configuration in ISCSI Hi Siva, Yes iSCSI UI does not allow the user to configure static IP address for initiator. But it does not mean iSCSI initiator cannot use existing IPv6 address which is previously configured by using "ifconfig6" in Shell. You may have a try.

But as per below VFR content, when we choose IP6 the controls to accept Static IP will be disabled. Right? suppressif ideqval ISCSI_CONFIG_IFR_NVDATA.IpMode == IP_MODE_IP6 OR ideqval ISCSI_CONFIG_IFR_NVDATA.IpMode == IP_MODE_AUTOCONFIG; -Siva -----Original Message----- From: Ye, Ting [mailto:ting...@intel.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 4, 2018 12:12 PM To: Sivaraman Nainar; edk2-devel@lists.01.org Subject: RE: reg: IP6 based Static IP Configuration in ISCSI Hi Siva, No, it is not correct. In iSCSI UI, if you choose IP6 mode, you still have chance to use static address. Just NOT click the checkbox of "Enable DHCP".

When we have IP4 mode selection in ISCSI we can set both Initiator and Target with Static Addresses. But if we choose the IP6 mode by default no setup options available to choose static and it take DHCP as default. In this case even if we configure IP6 using IfConfig6, it will override by ISCSI. Is my understanding correct?

For IPv6, we leave it to IP6 driver to perform source address selection to best match the iSCSI target address. You could use ifconfig6 to set static IP6 address before you configure iSCSI.

Is there any plan to support IP6 static IP configuration in ISCSI Configuration? -Siva _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel
