    IPv6 support

    Hi,

    www.zabbix.com states "Support of IPv4 and IPv6".
    However, when I try to create an host with an IPv6 address, I get "Warning. Field [ip] is not IP". Am I missing something ?

    I am currently using Zabbix 1.6.2

    Thanks for your help.

    What is your IPv6 address? I guess something was wrong with its format.

      Thank you for your reply,

      I have tried again with adresses from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6:
      2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334
      2001:0db8:85a3:0:0:8a2e:0370:7334
      are refused.
      2001:db8:85a3::8a2e:370:7334
      is accepted.

      However, according to IPv6 specification, all of them are correct.

      At least, I know now that only the shortest form works with Zabbix.

        Thanks for the examples. It helped a lot.

        We fixed this problem in pre-1.6.5 (reference ZBX-925). Please wait for the official release of 1.6.5.
