About IPv6
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is the latest revision of the Internet Protocol (IP), the communications protocol that provides an identification and location system for computers on networks and routes traffic across the Internet. IPv6 was developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to deal with the long-anticipated problem of IPv4 address exhaustion.
IPv6 is intended to replace IPv4, which still carries the vast majority of Internet traffic as of 2013.As of late November 2012, IPv6 traffic share was reported to be approaching 1%

How to enable IPv6 protocol in MicroStrategy 9.3.1


MicroStrategy 9.3.1 is certified for IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6). IPv6 is a revision of the Internet Protocol (IP) developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). IPv6 is intended to succeed IPv4, which is the dominant communications protocol for most Internet traffic. IPv6 was developed to deal with the problem of IPv4 running out of addresses. IPv6 implements a new addressing system that allows for far more addresses to be assigned than with IPv4.
To enable IPv6 in a MicroStrategy environment, the user will have to edit the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicroStrategyDSS ServerIPVersion
Change the value of the IPVersion key from “4” to “6” as shown below.
Have a Great Day!!!
