|WSUS will work in an IPv6 only network, however Microsoft's Windows Update servers are only available over IPv4 so either an [[IPv6 transition mechanism]] will be needed, or a [[proxy server]].

|PaperCut

|Windows

|All

|{{partial}}

|The PaperCut client supports IPv6 only networks where the IPv4 stack is not bound to a [[network adapter]], however it will crash if the IPv4 stack is uninstalled. The PaperCut printer port does not support IPv6.

|Planet eStream

|Windows

|Tested with v6.10.05.10+

|{{partial}}

|The bulk of Planet eStream works perfectly over IPv6. The main feature that doesn't work is [[streaming video]]. Video playback will fall back to [[HTTP]] over IPv6 and users can't [[livestreaming|stream live]] from the encoder application, although it will upload recorded videos (a special IPv6 build of the encoder was provided/unsure if this is generally available at the moment). TV [[livestreaming]] over IPv6 is not functional.

|{{partial}}

|Sage 200 mostly works in an IPv6 environment as it's is based on Microsoft [[Internet Information Services|IIS]]. Activation will not work over IPv6 or using a proxy server so the Sage application server needs to have an IPv4 address to activate. The Sage 200 task launch will also fail to run if the IPv6 stack is uninstalled.

|[[Hardcoded]] to send [[DNS]] requests to 8.8.8.8, or the [[DHCP]]v4 designated DNS server as a fallback if 8.8.8.8 is unreachable. Only requests A records, not AAAA, meaning it is completely dependent on IPv4. LG webOS and other LG webOS applications run fine without IPv4 access, so it is not the fault of the [[operating system]].<ref>{{cite web|title=My LG WebOS Smart TV NAT64 IPv6-only experience (LG OLED CX 65") in Australia|url=https://www.reddit.com/r/ipv6/comments/nal29s/my_lg_webos_smart_tv_nat64_ipv6only_experience_lg|website=Reddit|date=12 May 2021 |accessdate=2021-05-29}}</ref>
