2.1 Creating Websites

[2620:24:8080:8600:85a1:fcf2:2172:11bf]:8080. (Note that IPv6 addresses will
not be supported in dataloggers, until a future OS release for the
CR1000/CR3000/CR800 series dataloggers. Therefore, they cannot be used
for datalogger websites until that time. Check the OS revision history on our
website to determine when IPv6 support is added to the OS.)
