Install/Support Information
===========================

For the install issues, please contact support via email at 
prpq_inst@truth.austin.ibm.com.  For the IPV6 issues, please call support and 
say "I am having a problem with IPV6". This will allow the support personnel 
to properly handle your call.  If you are having an issue outside of IPV6, 
then simply state what the problem is and the regular support structure will 
be able to assist you.

Installation Instructions
=========================

1) Install AIX V6.1 TL 6100-01-01 as the base operating system
2) Update to the latest level with the files from the provided media:
   Use SMIT fast path: smitty update_all

Service Levels above TL 6100-01-01 should only be applied after verifying with 
your IBM representative.

Note: This PRPQ will ONLY be available from initial disposition date until 
its availability within a generally available AIX Operating System release. 
Customers will be required to update to the GA version of the code 30 days of 
GA to continue to receive support.

PRPQ Content
============

1) RFC 4292 & 4293: IPv6 MIBs for SNMP
2) RFC 3971 & 3972: Secure Neighbor Discovery
3) RFC 3041: Privacy Extensions for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration
4) BIND 9.4.1 implementing RFC 3596 (DNS Extensions for IPv6)

By default 2) & 3) are turned OFF and ndpd-host functions
like it did in prior releases.

See http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/p/os/aix/standards/v53/stdcmpl.html
for more detailed information.

Notes on BIND 9 Support
=======================

BIND 9.4.1 limitations and workaround:
Present limitation on BIND 9.4.1: In "option" statement in /etc/named.conf,
listen-on-v6 {any; }; will NOT work. i.e. client programs (nslookup,host9, dig)
fails to resolve names using UDP as transport. 

The workaround is for administrator to specify list of interface specific IPv6
addresses e.g.:
listen-on-v6 { ::1; fe80::21a:64ff:fe28:249d; 2001:15f8:104:71:21a:64ff:fe28:249d; };
listen-on-v6 { ::1; };

The proper fix is available as APAR: IPV6001 from http://ftp.software.ibm.com
