10.3 Notes and Restrictions
10.3.5 Notes and Restrictions for IPv6 Connection
 In a multi-prefix environment (where multiple IPv6 global addresses are used), data transmission from the
machine to a device installed on another network may fail.
 In a multi-prefix environment (where multiple IPv6 global addresses are used), an address that is not assigned to
the machine may be used for communication.
 An auto-configured IPv6 address (IPv6 autoconfiguration address, IPv6 DNS server address) may be assigned an
address that cannot be used by the obtained IPv6 address for operation.
An address that cannot be used for operation is, for example, a site local address (fec0::) or an address that
belongs to the documentation address space (2001:db8::/32).
 The machine may use the DNS information for IPv4 rather than that for IPv6 if the machine is in Dual Stack mode,
the DNS information for both IPv4 and IPv6 is configured, the machine is to communicate with a device that is
specified using the FQDN, and the machine has just been turned on.
 The machine may display an incorrect machine address.
For example, either the IPv4 or IPv6 address may not be displayed in Dual Stack mode, or a different IPv6 address
may be displayed.
 WINS does not support IPv6 communication.
 When IPv6 is enabled and IPv4 is disabled on the machine, you cannot specify a storage location for the Browse
function of the Scan to PC (SMB) service.
 In an IPv4 environment, discovery across routers via broadcast can be performed. However, this is not possible in
an IPv6 environment. Also, because an IPv6 environment does not support discovery across routers, only multicast
in an local link (FF02::1) can respond to multicasting.
 In an IPv6 environment without a DNS server, if a server name is specified as the destination server for Scan to PC,
transmission of scan data can fail.
