I Just install 2.2 in pure ipv6 environment and i am unable to ssh or ping default gateway of the appliance..
any help would be great
Yeah i found that over a month ago and gave it to support. Along with having to run a dual stack for the ip needed to connect to the external services.
Hello mccutcheon3233,
Welcome to VMware Communities !
SSH is disabled by default on Skyline Appliance. We can enable SSH by following the steps mentioned below
Please check the network configuration using the following KB article
Please share the information requested in the following link if the problem persists
This is not the correct answer if you read my statement I am not even able to ping the default gateway on a ip6 only configuration.
Hello mccutcheon3233,
I have a few questions to understand the issue further:
1) Please check the output of '/opt/vmware/share/vami/vami_config_net' from the Appliance shell and verify if the network configuration is correct.
2) Do you have any other VM on the same vSwitch/PortGroup/ESXi using IPv6 only?
3) Do you have any other VM the same vSwitch which can reach the IPv6 gateway?
4) What is the version of vCenter and ESXi running the Skyline Appliance?
Please share your contact details on the following link and let me know a convenient time to contact you:

Hi mccutcheon3233
If the issue persists please share your contact details, we will need to work over a remote session.
I have vrops and vcenter running on the same vlan and same host with out any issues.
I did check the setting you ask and it is enabled
I also have deployed 2.1 version and 2.2 both have the same issue.
I will ping you my direct contact information
Hello
Able to get ipv6 working for communication. The issue is with the ip6tables rules, it was not configured to allow input.
It can be fixed by running the following command on the shell:
#Ip6tables -P INPUT ACCEPT.
