SolidIPConfig facilitates a simple method for configuring IPv6 settings by taking into account your local network adapters. This software application lets you view, edit and delete information. It's geared toward experienced IT users, such as network administrators.
Straightforward setup and GUI
Installing this tool takes little time and effort. As far as the GUI is concerned, it opts for a standard frame with a clear-cut structure, which enables you to select the preferred network adapter to configure network settings for.
Manage IPv6 profiles and DNS addresses
New profiles can be put together by specifying an address, prefix (e.g. 64-bit from Router Advertisement) and interface identifier (e.g. EUI 64-bit derived from MAC address, randomly generated address). Moreover, you can label the address as derived from MAC using EUI-64 after receiving RA. Displayed properties include the type, store, valid and pref lifetime of the network, along with any additional parameters.SolidIPConfig makes it possible to edit profile details, remove any entry from the list if you change your mind, refresh information, as well as add new DNS addresses to the list and remove them, depending on the network adapter preferred. Apart from the fact that it comes with a built-in help manual, there are no other noteworthy options available.

Unfortunately, it froze and crashed during our tests when we attempted to open the user manual. However, this is only a minor issue, since SolidIPConfig generally worked smoothly. No recent updates have been made.
