Adding an IPv4-only managed host in a dual-stack environment

To add an IPv4-only managed host to a dual-stack Console, you must run scripts to prepare both the managed host and the Console before you can add the managed host to the Console.

About this task

A dual-stack Console is one that supports both IPv4 and IPv6. You cannot add an IPv4-only managed host to a QRadar High Availability (HA) deployment.

Table 1. Supported combinations of IP protocols on non-console managed hosts
Managed hosts	QRadar Console (IPv6, single)	QRadar Console (IPv6, HA)	QRadar Console (dual-stack, single)	QRadar Console (dual-stack, HA)
IPv4, single	No	No	Yes*	No
IPv4, HA	No	No	No	No
IPv6, single	Yes	Yes	Yes	No
IPv6, HA	Yes	Yes	Yes	No

Procedure

To enable your QRadar Console for dual-stack deployment, type the following command:
```
/opt/qradar/bin/setup_v6v4_console.sh ip=<IPv4_address_of_the_Console> netmask=<netmask> gateway=<gateway>
```
This example assumes that the IPv4 address of the Console is 192.0.2.2, the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, and the gateway is 192.0.2.1.
```
/opt/qradar/bin/setup_v6v4_console.sh ip=192.0.2.2 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.0.2.1
```
To allow an IPv4-only managed host to be added to your deployment, type the following command on the Console:
```
/opt/qradar/bin/add_v6v4_host.sh host=<IP_address_of_the_managed_host>
```
This example assumes that the IPv4 address of the managed host is 192.0.2.3.
```
/opt/qradar/bin/add_v6v4_host.sh host=192.0.2.3
```
Add the IPv4-only managed host to the deployment.
