Configuring Domino for IPv6 on Windows™
Before an HCL® Domino® community server can support IPv6 addressing on Microsoft™ Windows™, you must configure IPv6 support for the HCL® Domino server on which it is hosted.
Before you begin
Domino and the Domino Community server must be installed; the Domino server must be running (it does not matter whether the community server is also running at this point).
About this task
In Domino, only IPv4 addressing is enabled by default. Configuring Domino to support IPv6 involves modifying the Domino Community Server's "Server" document within the Domino Administrator interface, as well as adding configuration settings to the notes.ini file used by Domino.
For information on supporting IPv6 with Domino, see "IPv6 and Domino" in the Domino Administration product documentation at:
Domino Administration product documentation
Procedure
- To support both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, update the "Server"
document for the community server so that both formats will be accepted:
Note: If you will only support IPv6 addressing, skip this step.
- Enable support for IPv6 addresses by adding the following
settings to the notes.ini file, located in the Domino server data directory:
tcp_enableipv6=1 DONT_USE_REMEMBERED_ADDRESSES=1
In the next statement, zone is the default zone.
tcp_defaultzone=zone
This set of statements creates one port for IPv4 addressing (TCPIP) and another port for IPv6 addressing (TCPIPV6):
TCPIP=tcp,0,15,0 TCPIPV6=tcp,0,15,0 tcpip_tcpipaddress=0,_server's_IPv4_address TCPIPV6_tcpipaddress=0,_server's_IPv6_address ports=tcpip,tcpipv6
- Restart the Domino server so your changes can take effect.
