MS IPv6 Developer Edition....??

shuki · May 15, 2003, 10:58 AM

Just going into my LAN card properties and I see this listed... wtf is it? and where did it come from (assume windows update or sp1 but still). I mean I found this FAQ but I want to know from my "friends" if this is a good thing to have checked or used... not that I don't trust MS or anything

Just wanted to know if any of you guys had any input or opinions to share...

It's not something you need yet . . .
IPv6 is a future system for IP addresses, etc, main reason being to expand the number of available IP addresses for use.
There's a good bit of info on it here (from your FAQ)
And yes, I think it came with sp1
