Descriptions and notes specific to the IPv6 format are as follows:
IPv6 states that address values should be separated into 16-bit portions with a colon (:) and written in hexadecimal notation.
Example: 2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:9abc
The notation can be abbreviated.
Example: 2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:9abc = 2001:db8::9abc
Special notation (loopback address)
Example:
- IPv4: 127.0.0.1
- IPv6: 0::1 and ::1
URL notation (addresses enclosed in square brackets "[ ]" can be accessed)
Example: http://[2001:218:2001:3000::181]/
IPv6 address shared folder specification
When specifying a shared folder, change ":" to "-" and append ".ipv6-literal.net".
Example: \\2001-db8--1.ipv6-literal.net\shared
You can also use an abbreviated RFC 5952-compliant format.
Note
When using IPv6 to communicate with Log Analyzer Server, you must specify a resolvable host name and not an IPv6 address.
Do not use link-local addresses. Behavior is not guaranteed if link-local addresses are used.
You cannot use IPv4-mapped addresses.
