Unable to connect using an IPv6 address
Unable to print using an IPv6 address
Unable to scan using an IPv6 address
Symptom Remedy
A connection cannot be
made to the machine with the
link-local address.
When you specify the machine's link-local address, a scope
ID must be appended to the address. For example, when
you use Internet Explorer 7 on Windows Vista to access the
address "fe80::203:baff:fe48:9010", the Ethernet adapter
local area connection number (e.g., 8) must be appended to
the address as follows: fe80::203:baff:fe48:9010%8
The machine cannot connect
to a Windows Vista
computer.
Assign an IPv6 address manually to the Windows Vista
computer, and then register the IPv6 address with the
machine to permit connection from the computer.
A device outside the router
cannot be searched.
When searching a device outside the router via SMB,
directly specify the address. Multicasting is supported only
within a local link (FF02::1).
The Secure Watermark
feature does not function
properly when an IPv6
network is used to submit a
print job.
Use an IPv4 network for the Secure Watermark feature. The
Secure Watermark feature does not work on an IPv6
network.
When SSL is enabled, the
address to access
CentreWare Internet
Services "http://[IPv6
address]" entered on a web
browser is not redirected to
"https://[IPv6 address]".
When SSL is enabled, directly specify "https://[IPv6
address]".
Symptom Remedy
On an IPv6 network without a
DNS server, Windows Vista
computers cannot be
connected to a Windows
shared printer.
Register the computer name of the machine on the "hosts"
file stored in Windows Vista computers. In general, the
"hosts" file is found in the following folder:
C:\Windows\system32\driver\etc\
IPv6 communication cannot
be made with Netware.
NetWare does not support IPv6 communication. Use IPv4
for NetWare.
IPv6 communication cannot
be made with Bonjour.
Bonjour does not support IPv6 communication. Use IPv4 for
Bonjour.
Symptom Remedy
When the machine is
configured with a link-local
address only, file transfer
fails.
Assign a global address to the machine.
In IPv6 environment without a
DNS server, scan data
cannot be transferred using
the Scan to PC (SMB)
service.
Scan data cannot be transferred if a destination server is
specified using the computer name. Use the IPv6 format to
specify the server.
