SNMP over IPv6 not working

Hi community,

I am running a vCenter server installation (6.5 / 8024368) on Windows 2012 R2.
Last week I changed the IP configuration from dual-stack to IPv6 only.

IPv6 is working without any problem so far, no connection issues at all.

After that I also changed the SNMP receivers to an IPv6 address under <vCenter> -> Settings -> General -> SNMP Receivers, "Port" and "Community string" is unchanged.

My desired configuration was accepted.

But now, everytime an Alert is triggerd I got the following error message:

While we ran with dual-stack and an IPv4 receiver was configured we had no issues with SNMP.

Am I doing something wrong?

Can you review the link below?

Hi,.

Thank you for your quick respons.

vCenter is installed on a Windows Server 2012 R2.

vSphere IPv6 Connectivity  -> I couldn't find anything related to SNMP...

As I already mentioned, everything else is working properly over IPv6: vC -> ESXi, vC -> DNS, vC -> ADS, WebBrowser -> vC...
