Configuring IPv6 for Windows Server 2008

HP Smart Update Manager provides the most robust support for remote deployment when using Windows
Vista® as a client to Windows Server® 2008-based servers. Using HP Smart Update Manager in this
environment enables you to use all the capabilities of IPv6 including link-local, site-local, and global IP
addresses for both local and remote target servers. Windows Vista®, when used as a client to run HP
Smart Update Manager to remote Windows Server® 2008 operating systems or as a target operating
system on HP Workstation server blades, provides the infrastructure that supports full IPv6 deployment of
software and firmware updates from HP Smart Update Manager.

NOTE:

Windows® XP clients are not supported in IPv6 networks for HP Smart Update

Manager deployment.
