I wanted to thank everyone for both their online and offline replies.
At this time the FAA does not support IPv6 to connect to the ASDI
servers.

Cheers

I've pinged someone offline who may have a contact.   Will let you know
offline if I do and connect you.   I had some peripheral insight a few
years ago when I did some work with Boeing.  Even had a hand at editing
some ARINC standards.  The airline industry was umm....interesting :)
Suffice to say the guy I was working with at Boeing was pushing hard for
v6 capability within ARINC and this was 2007.  Keep fingers crossed.
