IPv6 Configuration

A new version of Internet Protocol (IP) uses a  

128-bit address to implement additional features 

that are not present in current IP addresses.

Contact your ISP to inquire about their support for IPv6.

Pass-Through 

Devices connected to your Router can talk to each other using 

native IPv6 packets, but information will be sent to all connected 

devices. Pass-through is not efficient and is not recommended for 

consistent use.
