Windows XP/2003 IPv6

[shashi kanth]

I am trying to delete IPv6 global address in one of my interface.

netsh interface ipv6>delete address 4 2001:c1:0:2:20e:7fff:fef5:37ad active

I am getting an error message
"A device attached to the system is not functioning."

Anyone help me how to delete ?

That address is a Teredo address (see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb457011.aspx)

Try
netsh interface ipv6 set teredo disable

[shashi kanth]

C:\>netsh interface ipv6 set teredo disable
Ok.


C:\>netsh interface ipv6 delete address "Local Area Connection 3" 2001:c1:0:1:20e:7fff:fef5:37ad
A device attached to the system is not functioning.


Same error is coming again .........

You may have to stop and restart networking or reboot the system to get rid of the address. Many IPv6 addresses are automatically configured when the interface is brought up.
