Information About Implementing IPv6 for Network Management
- Telnet Access over IPv6
- TFTP IPv6 Support
- ping and traceroute Commands in IPv6
- SSH over an IPv6 Transport
- SNMP over an IPv6 Transport
- Cisco IOS IPv6 Embedded Management Components
Telnet Access over IPv6
The Telnet client and server in the Cisco IOS software support IPv6 connections. A user can establish a Telnet session directly to the router using an IPv6 Telnet client, or an IPv6 Telnet connection can be initiated from the router. A vty interface and password must be created in order to enable Telnet access to an IPv6 router.
TFTP IPv6 Support
The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is designed to transfer files over the network from one host to another using the most minimal set of functionality possible. TFTP uses a client-server model in which clients can request to copy files to or from a server. TFTP uses UDP over IPv4 or IPv6 as its transport, and can work over IPv4 and IPv6 network layers.
TFTP File Downloading for IPv6
IPv6 supports TFTP file downloading and uploading using the copycommand. The copycommand accepts a destination IPv6 address or IPv6 hostname as an argument and saves the running configuration of the router to an IPv6 TFTP server, as follows:
Router# copy running-config tftp://[3ffe:xxxx:c18:1:290:27ff:fe3a:9e9a]/running-config
ping and traceroute Commands in IPv6
The ping command accepts a destination IPv6 address or IPv6 hostname as an argument and sends Internet Control Message Protocol version 6 (ICMPv6) echo request messages to the specified destination. The ICMPv6 echo reply messages are reported on the console. Extended ping functionality is also supported in IPv6.
The traceroute command accepts a destination IPv6 address or IPv6 hostname as an argument and will generate IPv6 traffic to report each IPv6 hop used to reach the destination address.
SSH over an IPv6 Transport
SSH in IPv6 functions the same and offers the same benefits as SSH in IPv4. The SSH Server feature enables an SSH client to make a secure, encrypted connection to a Cisco router, and the SSH Client feature enables a Cisco router to make a secure, encrypted connection to another Cisco router or to any other device running an SSH server. IPv6 enhancements to SSH consist of support for IPv6 addresses that enable a Cisco router to accept and establish secure, encrypted connections with remote IPv6 nodes over an IPv6 transport.
SNMP over an IPv6 Transport
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) can be configured over IPv6 transport so that an IPv6 host can perform SNMP queries and receive SNMP notifications from a device running Cisco IOS software for IPv6. The SNMP agent and related MIBs have been enhanced to support IPv6 addressing.
SNMP for IPv6 provides 3DES and AES are provided for message encryption.
Cisco IOS IPv6 MIBs
Cisco has long supported IP-MIB and IP-FORWARD-MIB in IPv4. CISCO-IETF-IP-MIB and CISCO-IETF-IP-FORWARDING-MIB are IPv6 MIBs that are defined as being protocol-independent, but are implemented only for IPv6 objects and tables. In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRC, IP-MIB and IP-FORWARD-MIB were updated to RFC 4293 and RFC 4292 standards, as follows:
- The upgrade is backward-compatible; all IP-MIB and IP-FORWARD-MIB objects and tables still appear.
- IP-MIB and IP-FORWARD-MIB include definitions of new IPv6-only, IPv4-only, and protocol-version independent (PVI) objects and tables. However, support is added only for the new IPv6-only and the new IPv6 part of the PVI objects and tables in these MIBs.
CISCO-IETF-IP-MIB and CISCO-IETF-IP-FORWARDING-MIB have been removed from the Cisco IOS releases in which the new standards have been applied. Information in these MIBs is now included in these new MIBs: IP-MIB and IP-FORWARD-MIB. See the Feature Information for Implementing IPv6 for Network Management for the releases.
MIBs Supported for IPv6
The following MIBs are supported for IPv6:
- CISCO-CONFIG-COPY-MIB
- CISCO-CONFIG-MAN-MIB
- CISCO-DATA-COLLECTION-MIB
- CISCO-FLASH-MIB
- IP-FORWARD-MIB
- IP-MIB
- ENTITY-MIB
- NOTIFICATION-LOG-MIB
- SNMP-TARGET-MIB
CISCO-CONFIG-COPY-MIB and CISCO-FLASH-MIB support IPv6 addressing when TFTP, remote copy protocol (rcp), or FTP is used.
The following MIB was added to support IPv6 over SNMP:
The following MIBs were modified to support IPv6 over SNMP:
Cisco IOS IPv6 Embedded Management Components
This section describes Cisco IOS embedded management components that have IPv6-compliant operability in IPv6 and dual-stack IPv6 and IPv4 networks.
- Syslog
- CNS Agents
- Config Logger
- HTTP(S) IPv6 Support
- TCL
- NETCONF
- SOAP Message Format
- IP SLAs for IPv6
Syslog
The Cisco IOS system message logging (syslog) process in IPv6 allows users to log syslog messages to external syslog servers and hosts with IPv6 addresses. This implementation allows user to specify an IPv4-based logging host (syslog server) by providing the host's IP address in IPv4 format (for example, 192.168.0.0) or IPv6 format (for example, 2001:DB8:A00:1::1/64).
CNS Agents
IPv6 addressing is supported in the Cisco Networking Services (CNS) subsystem. CNS is a foundation technology for linking users to networking services and provides the infrastructure for the automated configuration of large numbers of network devices. Many IPv6 networks are complex, with many devices, and each device must be configured individually. When standard configurations do not exist or have been modified, the time involved in initial installation and subsequent upgrading is considerable. Internet service providers (ISPs) need a method for sending out partial configurations to introduce new services.
To address all these issues, CNS was designed to provide "plug-and-play" network services using a central directory service and distributed agents. CNS features include CNS agents and a flow-through provisioning structure. CNS flow-through provisioning uses the CNS configuration and event agents to provide an automated workflow, eliminating the need for an onsite technician.
IPv6 addressing supports the CNS agents described in the following sections:
CNS Configuration Agent
The CNS configuration agent is involved in the initial configuration and subsequent partial configurations on a Cisco IOS device. The configuration agent uses a CNS configuration engine to provide methods for automating initial Cisco IOS device configurations, incremental configurations, and synchronized configuration updates, and the configuration engine reports the status of the configuration load as an event to which a network monitoring or workflow application can subscribe.
CNS Event Agent
The CNS event agent provides a transport connection to the CNS event bus for all other CNS agents. No event can be sent to the router by the configuration engine until the CNS event agent is operational and has successfully built a connection between the configuration engine and the router.
The event agent uses a CNS configuration engine to provide methods for automating initial Cisco IOS device configurations, incremental configurations, and synchronized configuration updates.
CNS EXEC Agent
The CNS EXEC agent allows a remote application to execute a CLI command in EXEC mode on a Cisco IOS device by sending an event message that contains the command.
CNS Image Agent
Administrators maintaining large networks of Cisco IOS devices need an automated mechanism to load image files onto large numbers of remote devices. Network management applications are useful to determine which images to run and how to manage images received from the Cisco online software center. Other image distribution solutions do not scale to cover thousands of devices and cannot distribute images to devices behind a firewall or using Network Address Translation (NAT). The CNS image agent enables the managed device to initiate a network connection and request an image download allowing devices using NAT, or behind firewalls, to access the image server.
The CNS image agent can be configured to use the CNS event bus. To use the CNS event bus, the CNS event agent must be enabled and connected to the CNS event gateway in the CNS Configuration Engine. The CNS image agent can also use an HTTP server that understands the CNS image agent protocol. Deployment of CNS image agent operations can use both the CNS event bus and an HTTP server.
Config Logger
Config logger tracks and reports configuration changes. Config logger supports two content types:
- Plain text--With plain-text format, the config logger reports configuration changes only.
XML--The config logger uses Extensible Markup Language (XML) to report the configuration change details (for example, what changed, who changed it, when changes were made, parser return code (PRC) values, and incremental NVGEN results).
HTTP(S) IPv6 Support
This feature enhances the HTTP(S) client and server to support IPv6 addresses. The HTTP server in Cisco IOS software can service requests from both IPv6 and IPv4 HTTP clients. The HTTP client in Cisco IOS software supports sending requests to both IPv4 and IPv6 HTTP servers. When you use the HTTP client, URLs with literal IPv6 addresses must be formatted using the rules listed in RFC 2732.
TCL
Tool command language (TCL) is used in Cisco IOS software for IPv6 to support features such as embedded syslog manager (ESM), embedded event manager (EEM), interactive voice response (IVR), and tclsh parser mode. TCL supports both initiating (client) and listening (server) sockets.
NETCONF
The Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) defines a mechanism through which a network device can be managed, configuration data information can be retrieved, and new configuration data can be uploaded and manipulated. NETCONF uses XML-based data encoding for the configuration data and protocol messages.
SOAP Message Format
Using the Service-Oriented Access Protocol (SOAP) protocol provides a way to format the layout of CNS messages in a consistent manner. SOAP is a protocol intended for exchanging structured information in a decentralized, distributed environment. SOAP uses XML technologies to define an extensible messaging framework that provides a message format that can be exchanged over a variety of underlying protocols.
Within the SOAP message structure, there is a security header that enables CNS notification messages to authenticate user credentials.
IP SLAs for IPv6
Cisco IOS IP Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are a portfolio of technology embedded in most devices that run Cisco IOS software that allows Cisco customers to analyze IPv6 service levels for IPv6 applications and services, to increase productivity, to lower operational costs, and to reduce the frequency of network outages. IP SLAs uses active traffic monitoring--the generation of traffic in a continuous, reliable, and predictable manner--for measuring network performance.
The following Cisco IOS IP SLAs are supported for IPv6:
- Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo operation--Used to monitor end-to-end response time between a Cisco router and devices using IPv4 or IPv6. ICMP Echo is useful for troubleshooting network connectivity issues.
- TCP connect operation--Used to measure the response time taken to perform a TCP Connect operation between a Cisco router and devices using IPv4 or IPv6.
- User Datagram Protocol (UDP) echo operation--Used to monitor end-to-end response time between a Cisco router and devices using IPv4 or IPv6.
- UDP jitter operation--Used to analyze round-trip delay, one-way delay, one-way jitter, one-way packet loss, and connectivity in networks that carry UDP traffic in IPv4 or IPv6 networks.
- UDP jitter operation--Used to proactively monitor VoIP quality levels in your network, allowing you to guarantee VoIP quality levels to your users in IPv4 or IPv6 networks.
How to Implement IPv6 for Network Management
- Enabling Telnet Access to an IPv6 Router and Establishing a Telnet Session
- Enabling SSH on an IPv6 Router
- Configuring an SNMP Notification Server over IPv6
- Configuring Cisco IOS IPv6 Embedded Management Components
Enabling Telnet Access to an IPv6 Router and Establishing a Telnet Session
Using either IPv4 or IPv6 transport, you can use Telnet to connect from a host to a router, from a router to a router, and from a router to a host.
DETAILED STEPS
Enabling SSH on an IPv6 Router
If you do not configure SSH parameters, then the default values will be used.
Before configuring SSH over an IPv6 transport, ensure that the following conditions exist:
- An IPsec (Data Encryption Standard (DES) or 3DES) encryption software image from Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T or later releases or Cisco IOS Release 12.0(22)S or later releases is loaded on your router. IPv6 transport for the SSH server and SSH client requires an IPsec encryption software image.
- A hostname and host domain are configured for your router. Refer to the "Mapping Host Names to IPv6 Addresses" section of the Implementing IPv6 Addressing and Basic Connectivity module for information on assigning hostnames to IPv6 addresses and specifying default domain names that can be used by both IPv4 and IPv6.
- A Rivest, Shamir, and Adelman (RSA) key pair, which automatically enables SSH, is generated for your router.
Note |
RSA is the public key cryptographic system developed by Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir, and Leonard Adelman. RSA keys come in pairs: one public key and one private key. |
DETAILED STEPS
Command or Action | Purpose | |
---|---|---|
|
Example: Router> enable |
Enables privileged EXEC mode. |
|
Example: Router# configure terminal |
Enters global configuration mode. |
|
Example: Router(config)# ip ssh timeout 100 authentication-retries 2 |
Configures SSH control variables on your router.
By default, five vty lines are defined (0-4); therefore, five terminal sessions are possible. After the SSH executes a shell, the vty timeout starts. The vty timeout defaults to 10 minutes. |
|
Example: Router(config)# exit |
Exits configuration mode, and returns the router to privileged EXEC mode. |
|
Example: Router# ssh |
Starts an encrypted session with a remote networking device. |
Configuring an SNMP Notification Server over IPv6
Use an SNMP community string to define the relationship between the SNMP manager and the agent. The community string acts like a password to regulate access to the agent on the router. Optionally, you can specify one or more of the following characteristics associated with the string:
- An access list of IP addresses of the SNMP managers that are permitted to use the community string to gain access to the agent.
- A MIB view, which defines the subset of all MIB objects accessible to the given community.
- Read and write or read-only permission for the MIB objects accessible to the community.
You can configure one or more community strings. To remove a specific community string, use the no snmp-server community command.
The snmp-server host command specifies which hosts will receive SNMP notifications, and whether you want the notifications sent as traps or inform requests. The snmp-server enable traps command globally enables the production mechanism for the specified notification types (such as Border Gateway Protocol [BGP] traps, config traps, entity traps, and Hot Standby Router Protocol [HSRP] traps).

Configuration Examples for Implementing IPv6 for Network Management
- Examples Enabling Telnet Access to an IPv6 Router Configuration
- Example Disabling HTTP Access to the Router
- Examples Configuring an SNMP Notification Server over IPv6
Examples Enabling Telnet Access to an IPv6 Router Configuration
The following examples provide information on how to enable Telnet and start a session to or from an IPv6 router. In the following example, the IPv6 address is specified as 2001:DB8:20:1::12, and the hostname is specified as cisco-sj. The show host command is used to verify this information.
Router# configure terminal Router(config)# ipv6 host cisco-sj 2001:DB8:20:1::12 Router(config)# end Router# show host Default domain is not set Name/address lookup uses static mappings Codes:UN - unknown, EX - expired, OK - OK, ?? - revalidate temp - temporary, perm - permanent NA - Not Applicable None - Not defined Host Port Flags Age Type Address(es) cisco-sj None (perm, OK) 0 IPv6 2001:DB8:20:1::12
To enable Telnet access to a router, create a vty interface and password:
Router(config)# line vty 0 4 password lab login
To use Telnet to access the router, you must enter the password:
Router# telnet cisco-sj
Trying cisco-sj (2001:DB8:20:1::12)... Open
User Access Verification
Password:
cisco-sj
.
.
.
verification
It is not necessary to use the telnet command. Specifying either the hostname or the address is sufficient, as shown in the following examples:
Router# cisco-sj
or
Router# 2001:DB8:20:1::12
To display the IPv6 connected user (line 130) on the router to which you are connected, use the show users command:
Router# show users
Line User Host(s) Idle Location
* 0 con 0 idle 00:00:00
130 vty 0 idle 00:00:22 8800::3
Note that the address displayed is the IPv6 address of the source of the connection. If the hostname of the source is known (either through a domain name server [DNS] or locally in the host cache), then it is displayed instead:
Router# show users
Line User Host(s) Idle Location
* 0 con 0 idle 00:00:00
130 vty 0 idle 00:02:47 cisco-sj
If the user at the connecting router suspends the session with ^6x and then enters the show sessions command, the IPv6 connection is displayed:
Router# show sessions
Conn Host Address Byte Idle Conn Name
* 1 cisco-sj 2001:DB8:20:1::12 0 0 cisco-sj
The Conn Name field shows the hostname of the destination only if it is known. If it is not known, the output might look similar to the following:
Router# show sessions
Conn Host Address Byte Idle Conn Name
* 1 2001:DB8:20:1::12 2001:DB8:20:1::12 0 0 2001:DB8:20:1::12
Example Disabling HTTP Access to the Router
In the following example, the show running-config command is used to show that HTTP access is disabled on the router:
Router# show running-config
Building configuration...
!
Current configuration : 1490 bytes
!
version 12.2
!
hostname Router
!
no ip http server
!
line con 0
line aux 0
line vty 0 4
Examples Configuring an SNMP Notification Server over IPv6
The following example permits any SNMP to access all objects with read-only permission using the community string named public. The router also will send BGP traps to the IPv4 host 172.16.1.111 and IPv6 host 3ffe:b00:c18:1::3/127 using SNMPv1 and to the host 172.16.1.27 using SNMPv2c. The community string named public is sent with the traps.
Router(config)# snmp-server community public Router(config)# snmp-server enable traps bgp Router(config)# snmp-server host 172.16.1.27 version 2c public Router(config)# snmp-server host 172.16.1.111 version 1 public Router(config)# snmp-server host 3ffe:b00:c18:1::3/127 public
Associate an SNMP Server Group with Specified Views Example
In the following example, the SNMP context A is associated with the views in SNMPv2c group GROUP1 and the IPv6 named access list public2:
Router(config)# snmp-server context A Router(config)# snmp mib community-map commA context A target-list commAVpn Router(config)# snmp mib target list commAVpn vrf CustomerA Router(config)# snmp-server view viewA ciscoPingMIB included Router(config)# snmp-server view viewA ipForward included Router(config)# snmp-server group GROUP1 v2c context A read viewA write viewA notify access ipv6 public2
Create an SNMP Notification Server Example
The following example configures the IPv6 host as the notification server:
Router> enable Router# configure terminal Router(config)# snmp-server community mgr view restricted rw ipv6 mgr2 Router(config)# snmp-server engineID remote 3ffe:b00:c18:1::3/127 remotev6 Router(config)# snmp-server group public v2c access ipv6 public2 Router(cofig)# snmp-server host host1.com 2c vrf trap-vrf Router(cofig)# snmp-server user user1 bldg1 remote 3ffe:b00:c18:1::3/127 v2c access ipv6 public2 Router(config)# snmp-server enable traps bgp Router(config)# exit
