  3. Configure a zone on both the Notes® client and the Domino® server.
  4. On the Domino® server, configure the port for IPv4 and the port for IPv6.
  5. Start the Notes® client.
  6. Optional: Connect from the Notes® client using IPv6 address-NRPC. Optionally, you can enter the zone if you want to.
