 ### IP address setup
 
-This example uses IPv4 to communicate with the [mbed Device Connector Server](https://api.connector.mbed.com) except for 6LoWPAN ND and Thread. The example program should automatically get an IPv4 address from the router when connected over Ethernet.
+This example uses IPv4 to communicate with the [mbed Device Connector Server](https://api.connector.mbed.com) except for 6LoWPAN ND and Thread. However, you can easily change it to IPv6
+by changing the mbed_app.json you make:
+```
+    "target_overrides": {
+        "*": {
+            "target.features_add": ["LWIP", "NANOSTACK", "COMMON_PAL"],
+            "lwip.ipv4-enabled": false,
+            "lwip.ipv6-enabled": true,
+            "mbed-trace.enable": 0
+        }
+```
+by modifying the ipv4-enable or ipv6-enable to true/false. Only one should be true.
+
+The example program should automatically get an IP address from the router when connected over Ethernet or WiFi.
 
 If your network does not have DHCP enabled, you have to manually assign a static IP address to the board. We recommend having DHCP enabled to make everything run smoothly.
 
 ### Changing socket type
 
-Your device can connect to mbed Device Connector via UDP or TCP binding mode. The default is TCP. The binding mode cannot be changed in 6LoWPAN ND or Thread mode.
+Your device can connect to mbed Device Connector via UDP or TCP binding mode. The default and only allowed value is UDP for Thread and 6LowPan. TCP is the default for other connections. The binding mode cannot be changed in 6LoWPAN ND or Thread mode.
 
 To change the binding mode:
 
-1. In the `simpleclient.h` file, find the parameter `SOCKET_MODE`. The default is `M2MInterface::TCP`.
+1. In the `simpleclient.h` file, find the parameter `SOCKET_MODE`. The default is `M2MInterface::UDP` for mesh and `M2MInterface::TCP` for others.
 1. To switch to UDP, change it to `M2MInterface::UDP`.
 1. Rebuild and flash the application.
