I am definitely not IPV6 savvy at all.  I know IPV6 is involved, but that is it.

Mike,
That makes sense.

It does raise another question.  When I look at the properties for the 
workstation I see the IPV6 address that matches the IPV6 that I get when I ping 
the workstation from the DA server.  DNS is also showing this same IPV6 address 
for the workstation.  When I try to ping the workstation from my desk I get 
"Ping request could not find host".  I get the same response from the site 
server.  Couldn't one reason for that be a lack of IPV6 routing?  Wouldn't 
remote control then work if the address was resolvable?  Wouldn't the DA server 
then complete the route via the NATed address?

I am seeing two IPV6 addresses in ConfigMgr for this workstation.  One is for 
2001:0000 and the other for FD9D:723D.  Isn't one the inside address and the 
other the outside address?  I must admit that I don't know very much about IPV6.

Thanks,
Ken ...

We have this setup.  I don't believe remote control will work since the IP 
address on the client is more than likely NATed by the provider.  DA proxy's 
through the DA server, so the clients are not using IP addresses on the local 
network, but appear that way.

We are just starting to play with DA, and we have it working with Windows 8/8.1 
workstations.  I have the ConfigMgr client loaded on a workstation connected 
via DA.  I am in the very early stages of testing and wanted to know if anyone 
had anything that they needed to do to get everything to work?  Right now I am 
looking at Remote Control.  I can't connect to the remote workstation and I 
think the problem is with IPV6.  My internal network isn't set up to support 
IPV6 yet.

I am not able to ping the workstation when it is connected via DA unless I ping 
it from the DA server.  From the site server I can't ping the workstation.   I 
see IPV6 addresses for it in DNS.  The workstation properties in ConfigMgr show 
both an IPV4 and IPV6 address.  There is no IPV4 address in DNS, so I'm 
thinking it got the IPV4 address when it was connected on the internal network 
to get the DA GPO loaded.

To get ConfigMgr to work with your DA workstations did you have to do anything 
special?  Have IPv6 setup for your internal network?

Thanks for the help!
