  3. Windows XP • Windows XP • Integral part of the operating system • Must be turned on • “Developer Preview” • No support for file and print sharing, DNS messages over IPv6, IPv6 support for WinInet, IPHelper and DCOM APIs

  4. Windows XP with SP1 • Windows XP with Service Pack 1 (SP1) • IPv6 is a supported protocol, even though network connections display as “Microsoft IPv6 Developer Edition”

  5. Windows .NET Server 2003 • IPv6 functionality built into ping, tracert, pathping, netstat, route, telnet, ftp • File and print sharing over IPv6 site-local addresses • IPv6-enabled Internet Explorer and Internet Information Services (IIS) • IPv6-enabled Windows Media Services • IPv6 support for Windows Sockets, RPC, IPHelper, DCOM and WinInet APIs • Literal IPv6 addresses not support by .NET’s wininet.dll
