IP Helper

Windows Vista Service Details

Description:

IPV6 support. Useful when that gets running but for now useless, as I am unaware of any locations that actually use IPV6. No idea why Microsoft chose to have it running at all time, but whatever.


Service Description:

Provides automatic IPv6 connectivity over an IPv4 network. If the service is stopped, the PC will only have IPv6 connectivity if it is connected to a native IPv6 network.


Consequences of Stopping:

Well, if IPV6 starts being used, it probably won't work for you until you re-enable this service
All services listed in 'Required For' will be unable to function


Depends on:

DCOM Server Process Launcher, Windows Management Instrumentation, Remote Procedure Call (RPC), Network Store Interface Service


Required for:


None
