IPV6 network boot with iPXE
IPv6地址获取方式
IPv6地址获取主要分为以下几种
| 预设闸道 | 地址分配 | DNS | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 手动配置 | 手动 | 手动 | 手动 | 
| SLAAC RDNSS | RA | RA | RA | 
| SLAAC DHCPv6 | RA | RA | DHCP | 
| Stateful DHCPv6 | RA | DHCP | DHCP | 
RA: Router Advertisement
SLAAC: Stateless Address Autoconfiguration
RDNSS: Recursive DNS Server
自动获取IPv6地址时获取信息的方式主要通过RA的M位与O位控制.
- M (Managed Address Configuration)
- O (Other Configuration)
M = 1 表示 Client需要去DHCPv6获取 IPv6 Prefix
O =1 表示 Client需要去DHCPv6获取DNS等信息
- SLAAC + RDNSS M = 0, O = 0 Client将从RA获得prefix, DNS等信息. RA一般由Router提供, 在Linux环境下可以通过radvd服务提供
- SLAAC + DHCPv6 M = 0, O = 1 Client将从RA获取prefix, 其他信息比如DNS由DHCPv6提供
- Stateful DHCPv6 M = 1, O = 1 Client将从DHCPv6获取所有信息
IPv6地址获取流程[1]
Client 使用UDP 546 端口, Server 使用 UDP 547 端口, 但IPv6不使用 broadcast方式获取地址.
假设
Server的 link-local address 是 fe80::6e92:bfff:fe07:bbb9
Client的 link-local address 是 fe80::21b:21ff:fe36:607e
IPv6 multicast addresses ff01::1:2
- DHCPv6 client sends a Solicit from [fe80::6e92:bfff:fe07:bbb9]:546 for [ff01::1:2]:547
- DHCPv6 server replies with an Advertise from [fe80::21b:21ff:fe36:607e]:547 for [fe80::6e92:bfff:fe07:bbb9]:546
- DHCPv6 client replies with a Request from [fe80::6e92:bfff:fe07:bbb9]:546 for [ff01::1:2]:547
- DHCPv6 server finishes with an Reply from [fe80::21b:21ff:fe36:607e]:547 for [fe80::6e92:bfff:fe07:bbb9]:546
RADVD[2]
Managed will tell the target host to request its IPv6 address from a DHCPv6 server instead of using SLAAC.
Other is important bit, as it tells the target host that (non-address related) configuration information is available from the DHCPv6 server.
/etc/dhcp/radvd.conf
interface eth0
{
        AdvSendAdvert on;
        MinRtrAdvInterval 30;
        MaxRtrAdvInterval 100;
        AdvManagedFlag on;
        AdvOtherConfigFlag on;
        prefix 3ffe:501:ffff:100::/64
        {
                AdvOnLink on;
                AdvAutonomous on;
                AdvRouterAddr off;
        };
};
启用radvd时必须启用 IPv6 forwarding功能
 echo "net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding = 1" >> /etc/sysctl.conf | sysctl -p

tftp server

flags默认是IPv4 仅支持IPv4; 修改为IPv6后同时支持IPv6和IPv4
service tftp

        socket_type             = dgram
        protocol                = udp
        wait                    = yes

        flags                   = IPv6

http server
Just deploy a simple http server to serve http request.

show ip6
set menu-timeout 5000
set submenu-timeout ${menu-timeout}
# Ensure we have menu-default set to something
isset ${menu-default} || set menu-default localhdd
set boot-url http://[3ffe:501:ffff:100::1]
