Dawn,

I ran the health network checker, no issues appeared.
Does this check for IPV6 issues, currently running only on our i-Series, not turned on anywhere else on our network?
I'm considering turning off, I'm still researching if needed for RPC. (RPCBIND)

Thanks
Paul

There's a handy network health checker you can use to see if you have any networking issues. It quickly identified the DNS configuration issue I had on a test machine.

Nevertheless, it's a reasonable question. If there is an attempt to communicate with IPV6, then significant CPU cycles may be expended to detect and communicate with the network. It's best to turn off IPV6 unless it is properly configured and in use. Remember the defaults are on, not off.

WebNav, missing IPV6 DNS server definitions KILL performance.

A bit presumptive of IBM to assume IPv6 is in use, if that's the cause
of the performance problem.

Haven't run across anywhere in IBM documentation the states IPv6 is
the preferred networking protocol for Navigator for i.

IPv6 certainly isn't in use on my firm's networks- still running IPv4
everywhere. And yet other web apps seem to run acceptably.
