Wireless controller can be manager via IPv6. However, AP and AP-WirelessController communication need IPv4.
On dataplane side, we support clients using IPv6 in B@AP topology. In addition, you can configure the policy so that you can separate IPv4 and IPv6 datapaths for client devices. This feature has been used by many of our customers.
