TCP/IPv6 Configurable Registry Settings (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
The following subkeys apply to TCP/IPv6 only. You can set all other configurable parameters by using the ipv6.exe utility.
Note
The default registry values vary depending on which Catalog items are included in OS design. For more information, see Default Registry Settings.
Per-interface settings are not configurable in the registry, but are configurable by using the ipv6.exe utility. These settings can be persisted in registry by the OS over reboots with the use of -p flag in IPv6.
For more information about ipv6.exe, see IPv6.
The following table shows the registry values for the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip6\Parms registry key.
| Value : type | Description |
|---|---|
DefaultCurHopLimit : REG_WORD |
Default setting is 128. Specifies the current hop limit. |
LLMNRPort |
Default setting is 5353. The port to use for LLMNR queries over TCP and UDP. |
LLMNRv6Address : REG_SZ |
Default setting is FF02:0:0:0:0:0:1:3. The IPv6 address to use for Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) queries. |
TcpTimedWaitDelay : REG_DWORD |
Default setting is 240. The valid range for this value is 30 to 300 milliseconds. This value determines the length of time that a connection stays in the TIME_WAIT state when being closed. While a connection is in the TIME_WAIT state, the socket pair cannot be re-used. |
