Installing IPv6 on Windows XP

IPv6 support is still experimental under Windows XP and the stack has to be enabled manually.

To enable the Windows XP IPv6 stack:
•From the Windows desktop press the “start” button.
•Click on “Control Panel”.
•Assuming that the Control Panel is in classic view mode, click on “Network Connections”.
•Right click on the connection that needs to have the IPv6 stack enabled and go to “Properties”
•On the properties window click on the “Install…” button.
•On the “Select Network Component Type” window, select the “Protocol” option and then click on the “Add…” button.
•On the “Select Network Protocol” window select “Microsoft TCP/IP version 6” and then click the “Ok” button.

The Microsoft IPv6 stack is now enabled for your network connection.

There is no graphical configuration of IPv6 properties/settings. A command line tool used netsh is used to configure IPv6 for interfaces.

To add or delete an IPv6 Address:
•From a windows command line invoke the netsh tool by typing “netsh” and then pressing the enter key.
•Next change the context of netsh to interface by typing “interface” and press enter.
•Change the context of the interface to ipv6 mode by typing “ipv6” and pressing enter.
•The command to add an address has the form of “add address [interface=] [address=]”
a. Example: add address interface="Local Area Connection 2" 2001:1945:feed:deef::1

Deletion can be handled in the same manner by using keyword delete instead of keyword add.

Hope this helps.
