Configure System Information

Insight Managed 28-Port Gigabit Ethernet Smart Cloud Switch with 2 SFP 1G & 2 SFP+ 10G Fiber Ports 

When in-band connectivity is established, you can change the IPv6 information through the 
local browser interface.

To configure the IPv6 address for the network interface:

1. 

Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.

You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or 
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.

2. 

Launch a web browser.

3. 

In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.

If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see 

Access the Switch 

on page 13.

The login window opens.

4. 

Enter the switch’s password in the 

password

 field.

The default password is 

password

. If you added the switch to a network on the Insight 

app before and you did not yet change the password through the local browser interface, 
enter your Insight network password.

The System Information page displays.

5. 

Select 

System > Management > IPv6 Network Configuration

. 

The IPv6 Network Global Configuration page displays.

6. 

Ensure that the Admin Mode 

Enable

 radio button is selected.

7. 

Determine how the switch acquires an IPv6 address:

•

IPv6 Address Auto Configuration Mode

. When this mode is enabled, the network 

interface can acquire an IPv6 address through IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol 
(NDP) and through the use of router advertisement messages. When this mode is 
disabled, the network interface does not use the native IPv6 address 
autoconfiguration feature to acquire an IPv6 address. Autoconfiguration can be 
enabled only when DHCPv6 is not enabled on any of the management interfaces.

•

DHCPv6

. Next to Current Network Configuration Protocol, select the 

DHCPv6

 radio 

button to enable the DHCPv6 client on the interface. The switch attempts to acquire 
network information from a DHCPv6 server. Selecting the 

None

 radio button disables 

the DHCPv6 client on the network interface. When DHCPv6 is enabled, the DHCPv6 
Client DUID field displays the client identifier used by the DHCPv6 client (if enabled) 
when sending messages to the DHCPv6 server.

8. 

In the 

IPv6 Gateway

 field, specify the IPv6 address for the default gateway for the network 

interface. 

The gateway address is in IPv6 global or link-local address format.

9. 

To configure one or more static IPv6 addresses for the network interface, do the following:

a.

In the 

IPv6 Prefix/Prefix Length

 field, specify the static IPv6 prefix and prefix to the 

IPv6 network interface.

The address is in the global address format.
