Research direction

Start by reproducing smp-server 6.2 on Ubuntu with IPv6 disabled and inspect the server startup networking path around the reported Address family not supported error. Done means smp-server starts successfully without IPv6 and the unsupported-operation error no longer occurs.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I have an ubuntu server with IPv6 disabled and smp-server 6.2 fails to start wiith the following error:

smp-server: Network.Socket.socket: unsupported operation (Address family not supported by protocol)

I don't see IPv6 being listed as a requirement in any docs, is this a bug?
