Hi,
&nbsp;
You missed to mention on which browser it should run.
&nbsp;
&nbsp;Ex: Browsers.Item(btIExplorer).Run("https://[&lt;IPv6_addr&gt;]:&lt;port_num&gt;")
&nbsp;

Here, I just the mentioned the routine which I am using. And of course, I have mentioned the browser type in my script :)&nbsp;var natIP = "x:x:x:x:x:x:x:x";natIP = "[" + natIP + "]"; // IPv6 address needs to be enclosed within []var loginURLStr = "https://" + natIP + ":5480";Browsers.Item(btIExplorer).Run(loginURLStr);The above snippet works fine for an IPv4 address, but throws error message for an IPv6 address.&nbsp;Regards,Mohammed Firdosh Nasim.

Hi,
&nbsp;
This is just a guess, Can you try chr function instead of using [].
&nbsp;
Ex:
natIP = chr(91)&nbsp;+ natIP + chr(93); // IPv6 address needs to be enclosed within []
&nbsp;
i'm not having web module to check this

Tried as suggested, but still seeing the same error. Basically when it encounters a colon (:) in IPv6 address format, it throws the error. Tried to replace : with chr(58), but no luck.
