Connecting a Notes client to a Domino server via IPv6
1. Install the IBM® Lotus® Domino® server and IBM® Lotus® Notes® client.

2. Enable IPv6 on both the client and the server by adding the NOTES.INI setting, TCP_ENABLEIP6=1, to the NOTES.INI files on the Notes client and Domino server:

3. Configure a zone on both the Notes client and the Domino server.

4. On the Domino server, configure the port for IPv4 and the port for IPv6.

5. Launch the Notes client.

6. Connect from the Notes client using IPv6 address-NRPC. Optionally, you can enter the zone if you want to.
