The Control Panel can be used to view and modify application settings. The Control Panel is available as a perspective in the Perspective bar on the left pane of the VEA console. It displays configuration-related tasks available on the host or system to which you are connected. You can select the Control Panel using the View > Perspective > Control Panel menu.

Changing the IPv6 preference through the Control Panel

When you configure replication, if you specify host names for the Primary or the Secondary systems, Volume Replicator resolves the host names to the IP addresses associated with them. The IP setting determines which IP protocol Volume Replicator uses to resolve the host names. Before you proceed with configuring the replication, you must set the IP preference depending on the IP protocol to use.

To change System NPP and Volume Replicator NPP values and IP preference through the Control Panel

Select the Control Panel using the View > Perspective > Control Panel menu.
Select the StorageAgent to display the Volume Replicator Configuration icon on the right pane of the VEA console.
Double-click the VVR Configuration icon.
VVR Configuration dialog box is displayed.
On the IP Settings tab, check the Prefer IPv6 Settings check box if you want to use IPv6 addresses for replication.
When this option is checked, Volume Replicator resolves the host names to IPv6 addresses.

This option is cleared by default, which means that Volume Replicator resolves host names to IPv4 addresses by default.
Click OK to confirm the settings and close the window.
