IPv4 and IPv6 support

Hello.

We are using currently the dropbear for the IPv4 only:

/usr/sbin/dropbear -r /etc/dropbear/dropbear_rsa_host_key -p 192.168.1.1:22 -p 192.168.14.30:22


Now, we need to add the IPv6 support.
I have a question:

Is it possible to use just one instance of dropbear for both protocols by just adding the IPv6 address and port like this:
       /usr/sbin/dropbear -r /etc/dropbear/dropbear_rsa_host_key -p 192.168.1.1:22 -p 192.168.14.30:22 -p [2003::100:17]:22

Or I need to run the second instance of the dropbear with the IPv6 address and port like this:
       /usr/sbin/dropbear  -p [2003::100:17]:22

I'm running the latest release 2014.65 and the combined option doesn't work, while the second option with 2 instances works.

Thank you,
Sincerely,
Michael.
