Combining IPv4 and IPv6 entries within the rule

IPv4 flow entries and IPv6 flows entries can be combined within the same PCC rule. The actions that carry the IP address are address-type-specific (for example next-hop-redirect). All other actions (rate-limit, FC change, and so on) are universal and it are applied to both flow types (IPv4 and IPv6). The node automatically sorts out flow types (IPv4 and IPv6) within the rule and apply corresponding actions.

If the rule contains a mismatching flow type and actions (for example, IPv4 flows and IPv6 specific actions), the rule is rejected. It is the operator’s responsibility to ensure that the address-type-specific actions in the rule have corresponding flows to which they can be applied.
