Enable Dual-Stack support for Kudu

Enable IPv6 support for Kudu in a dual-stack cluster. By default, Kudu uses IPv4 as the preferred IP version. If your cluster is configured for dual-stack operation (supporting both IPv4 and IPv6), you can enable IPv6 for Kudu through Cloudera Manager.

  1. Log in to Cloudera Manager as an Administrator.
  2. Go to Clusters > Kudu > Configuration.
  3. Set the IP version to DUAL_STACK mode.
  4. Click Save Changes.
  5. Restart the Kudu service.

You can use the --ip_config_mode flag with the appropriate value when connecting to a Kudu cluster using the Kudu CLI. For example, if the cluster is configured for dual-stack, set the value of --ip_config_mode to dual.
