Manually Setting the IPv6 Address on Windows Server 2012
Manually configuring an IPv6 address on a Windows Server 2012 system is nearly the same process as configuring IPv4 and is pretty simple. For this example, we use the documentation IPv6 prefix 2001:dba::/64, but for a real-world implementation a network administrator should design the IPv6 network using a prefix within the ULA range. For our network, the IPv4 range is 192.168.206.0/24, and for the IPv6 to provide some easy-to-remember addressing, we will use 2001:dba:ce::/64. The server in this example has an IPv4 address of 192.168.206.31, and its corresponding IPv6 address will be 2001:dba:ce::1f/64. To configure the address, follow these steps:
1. Log on to the proposed IPv6 server. ...
