Assigning IP Interface for Auto-Update Mechanism
By default, the device uses the IPv4 OAMP interface in the IP Interfaces table (see Configuring IP Network Interfaces) for the Auto-Update mechanism.
You can assign a different IP Interface (IPv4 or IPv6), using the following parameters:
| ■ | IPv4: [AUPDInterface] / configure system > automatic-update > aupd-interface |
| ■ | IPv6: [AUPDIPv6Interface] / configure system > automatic-update > aupd-ipv6-network-interface |
| ● | The IP version (IPv4 or IPv6) of the assigned IP Interface and the configured addresses (IP addresses or FQDNs) in the URLs that define the locations of the different files for Auto-Update (e.g., [CmpFileURL] parameter) must be the same. If the IP version is different between the IP Interface and a file's URL, auto-update fails for that specific file. |
| ● | If you configure both the [AUPDInterface] and [AUPDIPv6Interface] parameters, the device uses the IPv6 interface. If neither is configured, the device defaults to the IPv4 OAMP interface. |
| ● | If you configure the [AUPDIPv6Interface] parameter and an FQDN is used in a file URL , the device attempts DNS resolution using the IPv6 interface. If IPv6 DNS resolution fails, the device falls back to the IPv4 interface. |
| ● | You can use any type of IP Interface (OAMP, Media, or Control) for the Auto-Update mechanism. (The interface type is configured by the 'Application Type' parameter in the IP Interfaces table.) |
