[AWIPS #XRQ-170815]: Concerning AWIPS II errors

Hi Justin,

I'm sorry to hear AWIPS is giving you some trouble.
This looks like a common error we get with some of our Windows users.  The 
issue is that some Windows
machines have defaulted to using IPv6, and AWIPS does not currently support 
that.  To fix the issue 
simply follow these steps:
1) In Windows 10, search for "Control Panel"
2) Once in Control Panel, look for "Network and Sharing Center"
3) Click "Change adapter settings"
4) Select the adapter for your current connection (Should be either"Ethernet" 
or "Wi-Fi")
5) Click on Properties
6) Uncheck "Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6).
7) Close and restart CAVE.

I hope this helps.
Thanks.
