Hi, we are planning to implement IPv6 in our office environment. We currently use Magnolia and would like to know the answers to the following questions: 1. Is the application known to crash upon receipt of IPv6 traffic? |

Hi James you might want to move this issue to a Support project. If you do not have access to support you can request it following the instructions described at documentation
No, there are no such reports at this time.
Since Magnolia is a web application it relies on web access which is usually realized over TCP/IP, however it doesn't explicitly depend on any windows infrastructure.
no
no
no, Magnolia offers possibility of restricting access based on the IP address and also allows use of IP address to locate other Magnolia instances as a target for activation, but it doesn't require such.
no
no
haven't ran such utility, but I doubt it. The utility checks for dependency on ip4 libraries, since Magnolia is a Java application and doesn't perform any JNA calls it doesn't have any direct dependency on any libraries. The only dependency is via JVM used to run application server hosting Magnolia.
we are not aware of any such incompatibility at the moment 10. Does the application make use of older Windows Sockets functions that do not allow connection by name and/or do not choose the appropriate address automatically? (If new functions such as getaddrinfo, getnameinfo, WSAConnectByName, and WSAConnectByList are used, choose no) no |
