Are you configure you interface with dual stack ?

[Sakthi_12]

No

[Johnson Punniyalingam]

from the netstat -in you are  using lan0  also to configure the ipv6 address any reasons ?

[Johnson Punniyalingam]

SMH-> Networking and Communications-> Network Interfaces Configuration-> Network Interface Cards

Chose network cards (e,g lan1)

Select -> p-View/Modify IP Attributes -> IPv6 Configuration -> Chose Manual Configuration -> Key-inIPv6 Address

You can try this also,

   ifconfig lan0:1 inet6 1234::345 up

   ifconfig lan0:1 inet6  -private

But, this will work only with secondary interface.
