IPv6 (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

The IPv6 tool configures the IPv6 protocol and enables you to query and configure interfaces, addresses, caches, and routes. Ipv6.exe has numerous commands, each with its own set of parameters.

You can perform tasks for specific areas using IPv6 commands. The following table shows task groupings by area. To view the command syntax, choose the IPv6 command associated with a task.
