-
In Windows Embedded Compact 7, you configure the following registry setting to disable IPv6 temporary addresses:
Location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip6\Parms\GlobalParamsRegistry entry: UseTemporaryAddressesDWORD Value: 0
-
You run the IPCONFIG /all command to see assigned IP addresses.
In this scenario, you find that an IPv6 temporary address is not assigned.
