IPv6 Configuration Notes
Note the following before configuring an Identity Manager Environment that supports IPv6:
- For CA Identity Manager to support IPv6 addresses, all components in the CA Identity Manager implementation, including the operating system, JDK, directory servers, and databases must also support IPv6 addresses.
- If CA Identity Manager integrates with SiteMinder, the Web Server plug-in for the application server must also support IPv6.
- When you connect to SiteMinder or any database from CA Identity Manager using a JDBC connection, specify the hostname not the IP address.
- The Report Server can be installed on a dual-stack host, which supports IPv4 and IPv6, but the communication to the server must be IPv4.
- When you configure a connection to the Report Server in the Management Console, the server name must be in IPv4 format.
- CA Identity Manager does not support IPv6 link local addresses.
- In an IPv4/6 environment, if you want to configure CA Directory DSAs to listen on multiple addresses, add the additional addresses to your DSA knowledge files. For more information, see the CA Directory documentation.
