K. About Communication in IPv4 Environments and IPv6 Environments

Because Performance Management supports network configurations for IPv4 environments and IPv6 environments, you can use Performance Management in a network configuration that contains both IPv4 and IPv6 environments.

Note, however, that this applies only when Windows or Linux runs on a host with PFM - Manager installed.

Figure K‒1: Scope of communication when an IPv4 environment and an IPv6 environment are used

To enable communication in an IPv6 environment, you must execute the jpcconf ipv6 enable command. For details about the jpcconf ipv6 enable command, see the chapter that describes commands in the manual JP1/Performance Management Reference. For the conditions and timing for executing the jpcconf ipv6 enable command, see the chapter that describes network configuring examples in an IPv6 environment in the JP1/Performance Management Planning and Configuration Guide.
