Hello Jay IoTivity should support both. However, I would insist that we require the presence of the IPv6 API in any BSD sockets code we come across (that is, getaddrinfo, sockaddr_in6, etc.). Linux has had this since 1999 and it's inconceivable that a BSD sockets implementation in 2015 would have no support for IPv6. Whether the support is enabled at runtime or not, that's a different story. OIC is in a different position, though. I will speak to Ravi and the standards team soon about requiring IPv6 support in home networks. > We should have IPv4 <->IPv6 Converting logic for that requirement maybe. :) There's no conversion necessary. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center
