4. Add the following registry value: Value name: DisableStrictNameChecking Data type: REG_DWORD Radix: Decimal Value: 1 5. Close the Registry Editor. For more information about these steps, see the Microsoft Knowledge Base Item 281308 on the Microsoft website. IPv6 addresses can be passed to HP SUM in command line arguments or using the HP SUM user interface. In the HP SUM user interface, you can add a remote host on an IPv6 network by either entering the DNS name of the IPv6 target server or by selecting the IPv6 address button and entering the IPv6 address. HP SUM supports both the short-name and full IPv6 notation. You do not need to add the optional interface number when you enter the address. If you cannot connect to the target server or receive a Discovery failed message when executing HP SUM in an IPv6 environment, see "Configuring IPv6 networks with HP SUM" (page 26). After you connect to the target server, all other HP SUM functions work identically. Log files for IPv6 hosts are stored with all other HP SUM files in the \CPQSYSTEM\hp\log\ directory. Configuring IPv6 for Windows Server 2008 HP SUM provides the most robust support for remote deployment when using Windows Vista as a client to Windows Server 2008-based servers. Using HP SUM in this environment enables you to use all the capabilities of IPv6 including link-local, site-local, and global IP addresses for both local and remote target servers. Windows Vista, when used as a client to run HP SUM to remote Windows Server 2008 operating systems or as a target operating system on HP Workstation server blades, provides the infrastructure that supports full IPv6 deployment of software and firmware updates from HP SUM. NOTE: Windows XP clients are not supported in IPv6 networks for HP SUM deployment. IPv6 addresses can be passed to HP SUM in command line arguments or using the HP SUM user interface. In the HP SUM user interface, you can add a remote host on an IPv6 network by either entering the DNS name of the IPv6 target server or by selecting the IPv6 address button and entering the IPv6 address.

After you connect to the target server, all other HP SUM functions work identically. Log files for IPv6 hosts are stored with all other HP SUM files in the \CPQSYSTEM\hp\log\ directory. Configuring IPv6 for Linux HP SUM leverages the IPv6 capabilities of Linux as provided by the Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Server products. Using HP SUM in this environment enables you to use all the capabilities of IPv6 including link-local, site-local, and global IP addresses for both local and remote target servers. Remote target servers must have the iptables-ipv6 RPM installed before targeting them from HP SUM. Failure to install the iptables-ipv6 RPM prevents HP SUM from opening the communications port needed to send data to the initiating Linux workstation. You can disable the Linux firewall to allow HP SUM to work, but the Linux server becomes vulnerable to attack.
