Dear Experts<br />
<br />
I currently have a site setup on IIS 7 which uses a redirect, working fine on IPv4.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://website.contoso.com" rel="ugc">http://website.contoso.com</a>&nbsp; redirect to <a href="http://website.contoso.com:8090" rel="ugc">http://website.contoso.com:8090</a><br />
binding IP - 10.x.x.x<br />
<br />
I now need this to work with IPv6 so i've added the IPv6 address to the NIC and to the binding. However when browsing to the website via IPv6 and hostname it doesn't work, but continues to work via IPv4.<br />
<br />
If i put the IPv6 address in the browser: <a href="http://" rel="ugc nofollow">http://</a>[IPv6]:8090 i can get to the website.

Dear Experts

I currently have a site setup on IIS 7 which uses a redirect, working fine on IPv4.

http://website.contoso.com  redirect to http://website.contoso.com:8090
binding IP - 10.x.x.x

I now need this to work with IPv6 so i've added the IPv6 address to the NIC and to the binding. However when browsing to the website via IPv6 and hostname it doesn't work, but continues to work via IPv4.

If i put the IPv6 address in the browser: http://[IPv6]:8090 i can get to the website.

IPv6 HTTP Redirect on IIS 7

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.

Microsoft IIS Web Server

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the set of networking protocols that define end-to-end connectivity specifying how data should be packeted, addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination. This functionality is organized into four abstraction layers which are used to sort all related protocols according to the scope of networking involved.
