IPv6 is enabled on my networking stack and it works well for other networking interfaces on my device (Ethernet and WiFi).
IPv6 does not work with EM7455. I have checked with the operator, the SIM/Account is IPv6 supported/enabled.
I have enabled IPv6 in Linux and executed AT!CUSTOM=“IPV6ENABLE”,1 as well.
The cellular interface is showing Link local address, It never acquires “Scope:Global” IPv6 address.
What is the right procedure to enable IPv6 and use IPv6 address on EM7455 under Linux?
Hi @akn
Could you please share with me the log file with some commands as below?
AT!CUSTOM?
AT!IMPREF?
AT!GSTATUS?
AT+CGDCONT?
AT!SCACT?
AT+CGPADDR
AT+CGCONTRDP
It seems that the problem was due to selection of the wrong context ID. with context ID=3 it is able to acquire the IPv6 address. I am still facing problem on ping6 to any IPv6 address.
