Hi Ron,
Thanks for your support.
The update 817778 was effectively installed.
As you can see below, the new command netsh does not fix
the issue (Hex characters in manual entered IPV6 6to4
addresses are not supported)
/*
netsh interface ipv6>add address 4 2002:a18:1818::a18:1818
The parameter is incorrect.
netsh interface ipv6>add address 4 2002:1018:1818::a18:1818
Ok.
*/
However DYNAMIC IPV6 6to4 addresses with Hex characters
are accepted. see below the results with the if 4.
FYI Ron, the issue I highlited does not block the project
I am working on. Once again, thanks for the prompt answer
you sent me.
Richard.
