IPv6 Support Notes 

Operating System IPv6 Support Notes 

Java  

Java

™

 1.6 (and later) supports IPv6 for the following: 

 

Solaris

™

 10 (and later) 

 

Linux

®

 kernel 2.1.2 (and later)/RedHat 6.1 (and later) 

The following IPv6 configurations 

are not

 supported by Java: 

 

J2SE does not support IPv6 on Microsoft

®

 Windows

®

. 

Linux  

 

It is recommended that Linux kernel 2.4.0 or higher is used when 
using IPv6. 

 

An IPv6-enabled kernel will need to be installed or the kernel will 
need to be rebuilt with IPv6 options enabled.  

 

Several network utilities will also need to be installed for Linux when 
using IPv6. For detailed information, refer to 
http://www.bieringer.de/linux/IPv6/IPv6-HOWTO/IPv6-HOWTO.html 

Windows  

 

Windows XP and Windows 2003 users will need to install the 
Microsoft IPv6 service pack to enable IPv6. 

 

Keyboard, Video and Mouse Notes 

The following equipment have certain keyboard, video, or mouse 
limitations. Where applicable, a workaround is supplied. 

 

Sun Blade Video, Keyboard, and Mouse Support Limitation 

Video 

If you are accessing a Sun

™

 Blade 100 with the KX II-101-V2, video on 

the local port or a remote connection may not function properly when the 
Sun Blade is booting up. To avoid this issue, be sure you are using Sun 
Open Boot firmware 4.17.1 or later. 

Keyboard and Mouse 

Since Sun Blades do not support multiple keyboards, and no local 
keyboard or mouse port is provided, the KX II-101-V2 and a local 
keyboard cannot be used at the same time. However, a remote keyboard 
and mouse can be used for Sun Blades.
