3.1.3 IPv6

The growth of the Internet has created a need for more addresses than are possible

with IPv4. IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) is a version of the Internet Protocol (IP)

intended to succeed IPv4, which is the protocol currently used to direct almost all

Internet traffic. IPv6 also implements additional features not present in IPv4. It

simplifies aspects of address assignment (stateless address auto-configuration),

network renumbering and router announcements when changing Internet connectivity

providers. This router supports various types of IPv6 connection (Static IPv6 /

DHCPv6 / PPPoE / 6 to 4 / IPv6 in IPv4 tunnel). Please ask your ISP of what type of

IPv6 is supported before you proceed with IPv6 setup.

1. LAN IPv6 address settings:

Please enter “LAN IPv6 address” and ignore the

“LAN IPv6 Link-Local address”.
