We have multiple Linux guests of various distributions and levels. I am currently working with a RHEL 7.4 guest. We are trying to get the guests to be able to use both IPv4 and IPv6 on the same interface. When the guest comes up or I use ifup to start the interface, I can use the VM CP QUERY VSWITCH command to see that the guest has started the interface and registered the IPv4 address. However, the IPv6 address does not get registered until some IPv6 traffic has been passed to the guest. I can force this using either a ping from outside or a ping from the guest to something outside the guest - even another guest on the same VSWITCH.
Is there some way to cause the IPv6 to automatically get registered so that it can be verified immediately after the guest is restarted?
