The iLo in question is configured with a static IPv6 address (though SLAAC made no difference), and is quite reachable:
    ssh -l lamont 2001:...::cb
    lamont@2001:...::cb's password:
    User:lamont logged-in to kearns.example.com(0.0.0.0 / FE80::1658:D0FF:FE47:7028)
    iLO 4 Standard 2.03 at Nov 07 2014
    Server Name:
    Server Power: On

In fact, I can't seem to get the iLo to tell me its IPv6 address (other
than link-local) at the ssh prompt -- only at via web ui.

Please fix ipmitool to return the ipv6 address of the iLo, if any, in
addition to any IPv4 address.

Hi LaMont,
coming by with a triaging pass.

I wonder if that is for tracking and will be taken care in the Maas Team, or if you expect the server team to look after it?

[Nish Aravamudan (nacc)]

zesty has 1.8.18-2 and the Debian bug indicates the fix is present in 1.8.18-1.
