<div><p>Use these tips to troubleshoot IPv6.</p>
<div class="section"> <p>If you are using IPv6 for network connectivity, you can use several
of the same troubleshooting tools as you do for IPv4. For example, tools such
as trace route and Ping accept both the IPv4 and IPv6 address formats, so
you can use them to test connections and routes for both types of networks.
In addition, you can use the Netstat and communications trace functions for
IPv6.</p>
<p>Remember these tips when troubleshooting problems that are specific
to IPv6:</p>
</div>
<ul><li class="stepexpand"><span>Ensure that your Ethernet line is configured and active. </span> To check the status of lines that are configured on the server, follow
these steps:<ol><li><span>In iSeries™ Navigator,
expand your <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">iSeries server</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Network</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">TCP/IP Configuration</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Lines</span></span>.</span></li>
<li><span>In the right pane, find the line that should
be configured for IPv6 and check the Status column. If the line does not appear
in the list, you must configure a line for IPv6 either by manually configuring
interfaces on an existing line or by using IPv6's Stateless Address Autoconfiguration
feature, or both.</span></li>
</ol>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>If your Ping to an IPv6 address was unsuccessful, verify the address
state of both interfaces. Both interfaces should have an address state of
Preferred. If either the target or source interface is not in the preferred
state, then either choose other interfaces for the test or change the interfaces
being used to the correct status and address state.</span> To verify the
address state of the source interface, follow these steps:<ol><li><span>In iSeries Navigator,
expand your <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">iSeries server</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Network</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">TCP/IP Configuration</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">IPv6</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Interfaces</span></span>.</span></li>
<li><span>In the right pane, right-click the IP address
associated with the interface, select <span class="uicontrol">Properties</span>, and
select the <span class="uicontrol">Options</span> page. This dialog allows you to
view the preferred lifetime or valid lifetime for the interface. Repeat these
steps to check the state of the target interface address.</span></li>
</ol>
</li>
</ul>
