Experimental Methods

These methods are experimental. Use with care and only if you know what you are doing!

1. Use the opportunistic mode as described in the section called “Using Opportunistic mode”. This method works with both IPv4 and IPv6 applications. It does not require any HIP name configuration at all.

1a. Running a single IPv6-enabled application using HIP: hipconf run opp <EXECUTABLE>

1b. Enabling HIP for all applications in bash shell (add to bashrc if you want to set this permanently): export LD_PRELOAD=libopphip.so:libhiptool.so

2. Use the system-based opportunistic mode as instructed in the section called “System-based opportunistic mode (experimental)”. Does not require either any kind of HIP name configuration at all.
