IPv6 addresses may not show in the FlexNet Manager Suite web UI for non-Windows inventory devices. This occurs for devices exclusively in IPv6 networks that are reported only in FlexNet inventory. For these devices, the IP address field remains blank.
In dual-stack scenarios using FlexNet inventory, the IPv4 addresses of non-Windows devices are displayed, but the IPv6 addresses are omitted.
How to display IPv6 addresses
To display IPv6 addresses in FlexNet Manager Suite, you can use a third-party inventory source that returns IPv6 addresses. The secondary inventory source data will merge with the blank field, and the IPv6 address will appear in the listing.

You can create a verbose compliance reader log if you need more information to determine the cause of a data import issue for a particular import. Follow the steps below to create a verbose compliance reader log for a specific import.
On the server where the import process runs (the beacon or batch server), open the Command Prompt as a user with rights to run the import process.
Run the below command to generate verbose logging. Replace ADAPTER_NAME with the adapter you wish to have verbose logging for.
C:\Program Files(x86)\Flexera Software\DotNet\Bin\ComplianceReader.exe" -v -s 'ADAPTER_NAME' | Out-File -FilePath "C:\temp\Output.txt
Alternatively, you can enable verbose logging in the ComplianceReader.config file. For details on this, see the article FlexNet Manager Suite Logging Reference.
