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.
