-Options for the ipv6 module are supplied as parameters at load time.
-
-Module options may be given as command line arguments to the insmod
-or modprobe command, but are usually specified in either
-/etc/modules.d/*.conf configuration files, or in a distro-specific
-configuration file.

-is not specified the default value is used.
-
-The parameters are as follows:
-
-disable
-

- it will not be possible to open an IPv6 socket.
-
- A reboot is required to enable IPv6.
