TCP/IP on IBM i

Applications

TCP/IP applications and protocols for IBM i operating system are incrementally adding support for IPv6 (the next generation Internet protocol). Here you will find a list of which applications and protocols support IPv6 in the base V6R1M0 release. We will update this page when PTFs for V6R1M0 are ready for other applications or protocols. For those supporting IPv6 via PTF, you will also find the required PTF number for each application and a link to the PTF page.
