Operating System Applicationswith IPv6 Functionality Included

Internet Explorer

telnet

ftp

ftpd

Microsoft Network Monitor


15/19

Coming Soon

.net Server, now in beta and to bereleased in 2H2002:

IPv6 compliant IIS

IPv6 compliant Micosoft Media Server

Anything that runs over MS RPC should justwork.

Alledgedly every Microsoft applicationgroup is working on IPv6 compliance,but timetables are uncertain.


16/19

Open Software with IPv6 Supportwithin Windows XP

NTemacs

Teraterm Pro with SSH

Cygwin with IPv6 extensions

Apache with IPv6 extensions for win32

NcFTP

Windump

Emacs


17/19

Open Source Porting Problems

Sylpheed supports IPv6 with FreeBSD andLinux, but doesnt appear to work withWindows XP

Mozilla supports IPv6 on FreeBSD and Linux,but not for Windows. This is apparentlybecause Windows XP doesnt support IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses

Mozilla developer said there is some interest in makingmozilla IPv6-capable on Windows XP

Look for a Windows single stack network architecture in2003
