ipv6 in DUNE #42

Open rajanandakumar opened 1 year ago

This issue is to track the different topics needed to make sure DUNE supports ipv6.

Requirement : A job running on a pure-ipv6 machine will be able to receive jobs, run without any problem and upload data successfully to DUNE storage.

The points to be considered are :

  1. Job submission mechanism should be able to submit to CEs that have only ipv6 networking.
  2. WNs that have only ipv6 networking should be able to talk to justIN servers and services
  3. ipv6-only WNs should be able to access software (CVMFS) and needed data (Fermilab / RAL / CERN / IN2P3).
  4. ipv6-only WNs hould be able to upload outputs to DUNE storage (Fermilab / RAL / CERN / IN2P3)

I believe that most of the above is already in place through work done in WLCG. If yes, it is useful to document that it is in place for reporting upstream.
