Hi Team,

 

What is the relevance of BIOS -> Advanced -> Network Stack Configuration -> IPv6 HTTP Support in UCS C220 M5 machines? Can we make use of this option for OS installation purposes?

 

Thanks!

Hi @ansa ,

 

Yes, this option allows the BIOS to load OS images using http over IPv6.

Hello. Here are the benefits I've gathered:

  1. More Efficient Routing
  2. More Efficient Packet Processing
  3. Directed Data Flows
  4. Simplified Network Configuration
  5. Support For New Services
  6. Security
