Problem:

  • Product Name: VisiBroker
  • Product Version: 7.0, 8.0
  • Product Component: Core
  • Platform/OS Version: All
How do you prevent VisiBroker from attempting IPv6 lookups when creating an object using VisiBroker 7.0 and VisiBroker 8.0 on all platforms?

Resolution:

Disabling IPv6 for VisiBroker for C

You could set the property: vbroker.connection.onlyListenIPv4=true
Default value is false. By allowing the property to be true, the VBC server would be configured to listen only on the IPv4 network stack.

Please note that this property is removed from the VisiBroker 8.5 version to support "Pure" IPv6 deployment environment. It is superseded by the property vbroker.se.<SE_name>.scm.<SCM_name>.listener.preferIPv4Stack.
Please refer to the VisiBroker 8.5 for C Developer's Guide for details.
 

Disabling IPv6 for VisiBroker for Java


You could set the property: java.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
