Description Markus Kuppe CLA 2010-10-18 16:05:32 EDT 
Error connecting to: 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 java.io.IOException: Network is unreachable
Exception in initial DA lookup ch.ethz.iks.slp.ServiceLocationException: Network is unreachable

It seems as if jSLP has problems with IPv6.
Comment 1 Markus Kuppe CLA 2010-10-18 16:06:03 EDT 
Setting target to 3.4 hoping I will be able to work on it.
Comment 2 Markus Kuppe CLA 2010-10-20 09:56:40 EDT 
Add support for IPv6 in jSLP as defined in RFC 3111 [0]. Until then SLPCore will ignore/skip IPv6 interfaces to avoid subsequent errors.

Comment 3 Markus Kuppe CLA 2010-10-20 10:03:21 EDT

Comment 5 Scott Lewis CLA 2014-04-30 19:10:10 EDT 
Checking in with this...any chance of slp IPv6 support for Luna release (3.8.1)?

For my info...what prevented the fixes applied here from being released?
Comment 6 Markus Kuppe CLA 2014-05-01 11:24:33 EDT 
You find the current state of v6 support as part of bug #421063. IMO it's not ready to be integrated into ECF yet.
