Enabling IPv6 for SC4SNMP

Default installation of SC4SNMP does not support polling or receiving trap notifications from IPv6 addresses. To enable IPv6, follow instruction below.

Docker

Older versions of Docker do not support IPv6 or have know issues with IPv6 configuration. To avoid any problem with configuring the network, it is recommended to use the latest version of Docker.

To enable IPv6 for SC4SNMP, set IPv6_ENABLED variable to true in .env file. The default subnet used for SC4SNMP network in docker is fd02::/64, this configuration can be changed in .env file under Network configuration section. In case of configuring more than one IPv4 and IPv6 subnet in IPAM, networks section of docker-compose.yaml should be edited.

Default trap port for notifications for IPv6 is 2163. You can change it to any other port if needed with IPv6_TRAPS_PORT parameter in .env file. The IPv6 port and IPv4 port cannot be the same.

For more information about IPv6 networking in docker, you can check the official Docker documentation.
