Specify an IPv6 Internet Connection
The router supports many different types of IPv6 Internet connections for which you can specify the settings
manually.
IPv6 Internet Connections and IPv6 Addresses
The router can support an IPv6 Internet connection through the following connection types:
•
Auto Detect. For more information, see
Use Auto Detect for an IPv6 Internet Connection
on page 31.
•
Auto Config. For more information, see
Use Auto Config for an IPv6 Internet Connection
on page 32.
•
6to4 tunnel. For more information, see
Set Up an IPv6 6to4 Tunnel Internet Connection
on page 34.
•
Pass-through. For more information, see
Set Up an IPv6 Pass-Through Internet Connection
36.
•
Fixed. For more information, see
Set Up a Fixed IPv6 Internet Connection
on page 36.
•
DHCP. For more information, see
Set Up an IPv6 DHCP Internet Connection
on page 38.
•
6rd. For more information, see
Set Up an IPv6 6rd Tunnel Connection
on page 39.
•
PPPoE. For more information, see
Set Up an IPv6 PPPoE Internet Connection
on page 41.
Which connection type you must use depends on your IPv6 ISP. Follow the directions that your IPv6 ISP
gave you.
•
If your ISP did not provide details, use the 6to4 tunnel connection type (see
on page 34).
•
If you are not sure what type of IPv6 connection the router uses, use the Auto Detect connection type,
which lets the router detect the IPv6 type that is in use (see
Use Auto Detect for an IPv6 Internet
on page 31).
•
If your Internet connection does not use pass-through, a fixed IP address, DHCP, 6rd, or PPPoE but is
IPv6, use the Auto Config connection type, which lets the router autoconfigure its IPv6 connection (see
Use Auto Config for an IPv6 Internet Connection
on page 32).
