IPV6 and HPUX 11.0

I need to update an application to use IPV6 formatted addresses. With other platforms I have found that there are updates to the TCP/IP stack that I can download that will allow this. Does such a patch/enhancement exist for HP-UX 11.0?

Thanks in advance!

Judging by the following thread from earlier this year, it looks like no IPv6 unless you upgrade to 11i. (Searched for "IPv6 HP-UX 11.00" in the Forums.)

Indeed, if you want to enable support for IPv6, you have to be on 11.11 or later (aka 11i v1 or later) and then install a "TOUR" package (basically a big TCP/IP patch :)

And the TOUR package can be downloaded from:

It's available only on 11i v1 and v2.

HTH.
