[Suggestion] How about getting IPv6 address?
Posted: April 3rd, 2018, 11:27 am
Hello,
I noticed a post from about 6 years ago from someone asking about having the ability to get the IPv6 address of an adapter in addition to IPv4. I think back in 2012 posts were written on parchment with a quill pen and mailed...? Anyway, the response to the suggestion was something like "maybe someday when IPv6 is used more", which was a perfectly reasonable response for 2012.
Welp, it's 2018, so how about now? A nice SysInfo addition to get the IPv6 address might be useful, and complement the current ability to get the IPv4 address. I know we could use RunCommand with cmd/powershell and do some screen-scraping to get the address, but a nice SysInfo option would be so much cleaner.
