LAN IPv6
Address Assign
Setup
Select how you want to obtain an IPv6 address:
•
Stateless:
The Router uses IPv6 stateless autoconfiguration. RADVD (Router
Advertisement Daemon) is enabled to have the Router send IPv6 prefix
information in router advertisements periodically and in response to router
solicitations. DHCPv6 server is disabled.
•
Stateful:
The Router uses IPv6 stateful autoconfiguration. The DHCPv6 server is
enabled to have the Router act as a DHCPv6 server and pass IPv6 addresses to
DHCPv6 clients.
•
Stateless and Stateful:
The Router uses both IPv6 stateless and stateful
autoconfiguration. The LAN IPv6 clients can obtain IPv6 addresses either through
router advertisements or through DHCPv6.
LAN IPv6 DNS
Assign Setup
Select how the Router provides DNS server and domain name information to the
clients:
•
Stateless:
The Router uses IPv6 stateless autoconfiguration. RADVD (Router
Advertisement Daemon) is enabled to have the Router send IPv6 prefix
information in router advertisements periodically and in response to router
solicitations. DHCPv6 server is disabled.
•
Stateful:
The Router uses IPv6 stateful autoconfiguration. The DHCPv6 server is
enabled to have the Router act as a DHCPv6 server and pass IPv6 addresses to
DHCPv6 clients.
•
Stateless and Stateful:
The Router uses both IPv6 stateless and stateful
autoconfiguration. The LAN IPv6 clients can obtain IPv6 addresses either through
router advertisements or through DHCPv6.
DHCPv6 Server
Select
Enable
to have the Router act as a DHCPv6 server and pass IPv6 addresses,
DNS server and domain name information to DHCPv6 clients.
Pool Start/End
Specify the first/last IPv6 address in the pool of addresses that can be assigned to
DHCPv6 clients.
DNSv6 Mode
Select the DNS role (
Proxy
or
Relay
) that you want the Router to act in the IPv6 LAN
network. Alternatively, select
Manual
and specify the DNS servers’ IPv6 address in the
fields below. Select
None
to disable this feature.
Primary/
Secondary DNS
This field is available if you select
Manual
as the DNSv6 mode. Enter the first/second
DNS server IPv6 address the Router passes to the DHCP clients.
DNS Query Mode
Select how the Router handles clients’ DNS information requests.
•
IPv4 DNS Server First:
The Router forwards the requests to the IPv4 DNS server
first and then the IPv6 DNS server. Then it sends clients the first DNS information it
receives.
•
IPv6 DNS Server First:
The Router forwards the requests to the IPv6 DNS server
first and then the IPv4 DNS server. Then it sends clients the first DNS information it
receives.
•
IPv4 DNS Server Only:
The Router forwards the requests to the IPv4 DNS server
and sends clients the DNS information it receives.
•
IPv6 DNS Server Only:
The Router forwards the requests to the IPv6 DNS server
and sends clients the DNS information it receives.
