System configurations compatible with IPv6
This section describes the conditions for system configurations that use IPv6.
Node combinations supported by Application Agent
Application Agent supports IPv6 in configurations that use dual stack nodes.
The following table lists the nodes on the server side and the corresponding nodes on the client side
that Application Agent supports.

#1
IPv6 can be used only if the client side is configured with Windows Server 2003 SP2 or Windows
Server 2008.
#2
Application Agent is not supported in configurations that use IPv6 nodes.
#3
Because IPv4 and IPv6 are different protocols, IPv4 and IPv6 nodes cannot communicate with
each other.
#4
If a host name is specified, a connection is attempted by using the IPv4 IP address linked to the
host name. If a connection is successfully established using the IPv4 IP address, then the IPv4 IP
address is used for all subsequent connection attempts. If the connection attempt fails using the
IPv4 IP address, a connection is then attempted using the IPv6 IP address. If a connection is suc-
cessfully established using the IPv6 IP address, then the IPv6 IP address is used for subsequent
connection attempts.
OSs that support IPv6 when Application Agent uses FTP
The following OSs support communication based on IPv6 when Application Agent uses FTP:
• Microsoft(R) Windows Server(R) 2008 R2 Datacenter
• Microsoft(R) Windows Server(R) 2008 R2 Enterprise
• Microsoft(R) Windows Server(R) 2008 R2 Standard
Application Agent executes the EX_DRM_FTP_PUT or EX_DRM_FTP_GET command to use FTP.
