IPv6 Support

Sybase IQ supports Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), which contains addressing and control information to route packets over the Internet.

IPv6 supports two128 unique IP addresses, which is a substantial increase over the number of addresses supported by its predecessor IPv4. Sybase IQ supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses anywhere you can specify an IP address on the client or server.

ODBC classes support the use of IPv6 addresses for remote data access. JDBC classes do not support the use of IPv6 addresses for remote data access.

For more information on IPv6 support, see SQL Anywhere Server - Database Administration > Starting and connecting to Your database > Communication protocols > Using the TCP/IP protocol > IPv6 support in SQL Anywhere.
