No ipv6 objects available in NGX 6.0 dashboard

[elblindo]

hello,

I try to get IPv6-features working on NGX 6.0 on Solaris10 (Sparc, SunFire V440 ), but there are no menu-objects named IPv6-host or -network in Smartdashboard, as described in Checkpoints HOWTO. I've done the things as suggested:
- enabled IPv6-Interfaces both on enforcement modul an management station
- installed a valid license (cplic check fw1:6.0:cpipv6 gives back a valid license)
- run the script fwipv6_enable and reboot

If I look at the code for the current policy, there is a section

//IPv6 Support
#defined IPV6_ENABLED 1

But I haven't under "Manage->-Networking objects->-New" the IPv6 Submenu to define objects.

Are there any other things to do to get the feature?

Thanks in advance

I got it!
And I think, the HOWTO is wrong. Here is the sentence from the script "From the menu select "Manage>Network Objects..., click New... and then select IPv6 and then IPv6 Host... or IPv6 Network"

The way to go is not to use the menu, but the Objects Tree in the right frame of the dashboard, here right-mouse-click the Network Objects -> Others (only the very first time you create a ipv6-object these objects are below "others". At a second use there comes up a Submenu "IPv6". ) At a later time you can use the IPv6-object-icon in the object-tree.

What an inconsistent behavior?!
