Hi,<br />

::1 is the IPv6 equivalent of 127.0.0.1 so that just means 'localhost'

Hi Experts,<br />
<br />
I have a WSUS server called VCL-WSUS-02 and in the WSUS Admin console it is listing its address as ::1, the IPv6 Loop back address.<br />
<br />
It is running on Server 2008 r2 and I have disabled IPv6. &nbsp;I thought it might be something to do with IIS as ::1 is listed as one of the addresses on which IIS can listen on. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I have tried specifying the IPv4 address on IIS which then results in the WSUS console being unable to connect to the WSUS server. <br />
<br />
i am using SQL Server 2008 R2 express, could it be something to do with that?<br />
<br />
thanks for your help in advance
