Hello 🙂  
before posting all my code and all my Error codes. I try to use the community.windows.win\_iis\_webbinding module with an IPv6 as bind ip. And its not working (v4 does). Does anyone use this combination or is there an Information that this combination should be compatible?  
cheers Kevin

Hello @boeseK,

There is no specefic ipv6 documentation available at first sight but should be straight forward.  
And if that is not working you can always fallback on some powershell.

I took a quick glance at the module source code. It seems like it does expect an IPv4 address and port (again, I took a quick glance).

I looked at microsoft.iis.website and that takes a different approach. You may have better luck with that module
