Key points in migrating to IPv6 and using IBM MQ

This section lists some key points to be aware of when you are thinking of installing IBM MQ and using IPv6.

• IBM MQ recognizes IPv6 hexadecimal addresses (for example fe80:43e4:0204:acff:fe97:2c34:fde0:3485) as well as IPv4 dotted decimal addresses (for example 9.20.9.30).
• For a system running both IPv4 and IPv6 system, the connection name (CONNAME) you specify for a given channel determines the IP protocol for the channel making a connection.
