– Manually specify the source addresses required to estab-
lish the connection.
– Use stateless auto-configuration to obtain the subnet
prefix from a router, and then use the prefix in combina-
tion with the unit’s MAC address to build the global
address. It also obtains the subnet prefix length and
default gateway address.
– Use a DHCPv6 server to obtain addresses (referred to as
stateful auto-configuration).
Before establishing a connection, the unit performs Duplicate
Address Detection (DAD) to verify that the locally assigned
link-local address hasn’t already been used.
To establish an IPoE connection that will carry IPv6 traffic
1 If you haven’t already done so, launch your IPv6 applica-
tion (see “Launching an application” on page 28 ), and
then select a test (see the appropriate procedure below):
– “Selecting a layer 3 IP test” on page 120
– “Selecting a layer 4 TCP/UDP test” on page 165
2 Press the Configure navigation key.
A configuration menu appears.
TIP:
When specifying addresses manually, you can use two
colons (::) to represent hexadecimal fields of consecutive
zeros. For example:
2001:0db8:85a3:08d3:0000:0000:0370:7334
Can be represented by:
2001:0db8:85a3:08d3::0370:7334
To type colons in addresses, use the asterisk key (*). For
details on using the HST keypad, see the HST-3000 Base
Unit User’s Guide.
