Description
Hi,
I've been trying to use the library in pure IPv6 environment. It doesn't seem to work. By default this library uses IPAddress.Any which is IPv4. I cannot use specific IP address rather I'll have to listen to all network adapters.
Am I missing anything? Should the library listen in dual mode socket?
Thanks,
Manojit Paul

Research direction
Start by tracing where the library binds its server socket using IPAddress.Any, then compare that behavior in a pure IPv6 environment with the dual-mode socket question raised here. Done should mean the library can listen on all network adapters in IPv6-only environments without regressing existing IPv4 behavior.
