IPv6?



Title: IPv6?

Hi,

        I noticed that in playing with a new ES4 system, my ifconfig output shows:

eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:50:8B:65:4E:FE 
          inet addr:146.28.34.30  Bcast:146.28.34.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::250:8bff:fe65:4efe/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:463514 errors:4 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:4
          TX packets:64237 errors:4 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:10
          collisions:6989 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:166824921 (159.0 MiB)  TX bytes:8128165 (7.7 MiB)

I know almost nothing about IPv6, having never used it anywhere, so I am wondering why I have an "inet6" address there? I have not configured any v6 info, so I'm trying to determine how that is being populated.

Additionally, if I try to rsh to another system, I am seeing this:

connect to address 146.28.34.29: Connection refused
Trying next address...
connect to address 921c:221d:6370:6166:6973:7862:78:6200: Network is unreachable

I'm assuming that is also IPv6-related...

Any help is appreciated,

Kevin
