IPv6 Address Assignment
There are three IPv6 settings available for each Ethernet port, a Wi-Fi connection via the
USB PORT
on the codec and any VLANs which are configured.
1. Auto: An address is automatically assigned to the codec when you connect the codec to an
IPv6 router. This process is similar to how an IPv4 DHCP address is assigned.
2. Manual: Select to manually enter IPv6 address details.
3. Off: Select to ignore IPv6 address details.
Important Note:
Select
Off
if you are not using IPv6 to connect to another device. This
ensures your codec will attempt to connect using IPv4 at all times.
