Is this for TCPIP Services ? Just how functional was it ? Did anyone
actually use it ? When did the DNS server on VMS become capable of
handling AAAA records ?

Do layered products like mail, ftp, apache web server support IPv6 today ?

I may be wrong here, but I don't recall TCPIP$CONFIG having menus to
configure IPv6 interfaces.

VMS is no longer high tech. It is a legacy OS used to run legacy apps.
