DHCP IPv6
Select
DHCP&SLAAC
to have the use both DHCPv6 and SLAAC to get an IP address.
Select
DHCP
to obtain an IPv6 address from a DHCPv6 server. The IP address
assigned by a DHCPv6 server has priority over the IP address automatically
generated by the Device using the IPv6 prefix from an RA.
Select
Auto
to have the Device try to use DHCPv6 to get an IP address and then
SLAAC if DHCPv6 does not work.
Select
SLAAC
(Stateless address autoconfiguration) to have the Device use the prefix
to automatically generate a unique IP address that does not need to be maintained
by a DHCP server.
Select
None
if you do not want the Device to obtain an IPv6 address from a DHCPv6
server.
DHCP PD
Select
Enable
to use
DHCP PD
(Prefix Delegation) to allow the Device to pass the IPv6
prefix information to its LAN hosts. The hosts can then use the prefix to generate
their IPv6 addresses.
Dual Stack Lite
The Dual Stack Lite fields display when you set the
IPv6/IPv4 Dual Stack
field to
IPv6
. Enable Dual Stack Lite to let local computers use IPv4 through an ISP’s IPv6
network.
Mode
Select
Manual
if you have the IPv6 address of the Address Family Transition Router
(AFTR), otherwise select
Auto
to have the Device detect it automatically through
DHCPv6.
Remote IPv6
Address
When you set the
Mode
field to
Manual
, specify the AFTR IPv6 address.
IPv6 Address
When you enable
Static IP Address
, enter the IPv6 address of the Device in the
WAN.
Prefix Length
When you enable
Static IP Address
, enter the IPv6 prefix length in the WAN here.
IPv6 Default
Gateway
When you enable
Static IP Address
, enter the IPv6 address of the default gateway
here.
IPv6 DNS Server1
When you enable
Static IP Address
, enter the primary DNS server IPv6 address
here.
IPv6 DNS Server2
When you enable
Static IP Address
, enter the secondary DNS server IPv6 address
here.
WAN Identifier Type
Select
Manual
to manually enter a WAN Identifier as the interface ID to identify the
WAN interface. The Device appends the WAN Identifier to the IPv6 address prefix to
create the routable global IPv6 address. Select
EUI64
to use the EUI-64 format to
generate an interface ID from the MAC address of the WAN interface.
WAN Identifier
If you selected
Manual
, enter the WAN Identifier in this field. The WAN identifier
should be unique and 64 bits in hexadecimal form. Every 16 bit block should be
separated by a colon as in XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX where X represents a hexadecimal
character. Blocks of zeros can be represented with double colons as in
XXXX:XXXX::XXXX.
