IPv6 with NSX for vSphere

[eroztech]

My customer wants to use IPv6 for its network... Does NSX-v 6.x supports IPv6 for all its overlay network components and services like NSX Manager, Controller, ESG, DLR, DFW, DHCP, LB and VPN etc??

End-End IPV6 for all components and features is not supported so far in NSX. If you are leveraging a IPV6 logical switch stack , we need direct connection with Edges since DLR don't support it. Also for dynamic routes we can't use IPv6 , static routes are preferred for IPV6.  LB,VPN,DFW,NSX manager they all support IPv6 ,but i'm not sure if there are any limitations with IPv6 for LB & VPN features  and controllers should use IPV4 stack.
