Avoid IPv6 communication when debugging with real device
We are experiencing troubles in our organization when we want to debug iOS applications on physical iPhones and iPads. Our iPhones (iPhone 16e, iOS 18.5) are not recognized by Xcode 16.4, but in the Finder they show up fine using the USB cable. We are aware, that the communication is different and there is an ad-hoc network that gets created to exchange the device profile. Together with our IT department responsible for our security infrastructure we narrowed it down to the following reason: As we are blocking all IPv6 traffic for local networking, the iPhone cannot communicate with Xcode to make the first connection and load the device profile. As they are not planning on changing this behavior, I am reaching out to you, if there is a way to force this first handshake between Xcode and iOS device to use IPv4? Or is there any other way to enable debugging for these devices? Any ideas would be very helpful.
