####:####:####:####:####:####:####:##
## where #### ranges from 0 to FFFF. A
compressed version of the same IPv6 address is

1
The static IPv6 address for the IPv6
default gateway to be used by the
Onboard Administrator. This setting is
required in an IPv6 network
environment configured to be fully
static.
The Onboard Administrator can accept
IPv6 gateway configuration directly via
this setting and, if configured, via
Router Advertisements from IPv6 routers
on the management network. If Router
Advertisements provide IPv6 gateway
configuration, their gateway
configuration overrides the static IPv6
gateway setting. The IPv6 gateway
currently in use by the Onboard
Administrator is displayed in the
Current Default Gateway field on the
Active Onboard Administrator TCP/IP
Settings ("
Administrator TCP/IP Settings screen
) screen and the Standby
Onboard Administrator TCP/IP Settings
screen.

Dynamic DNS updates the DNS server

addresses. This enables you to use the
same host name over time, although the
dynamically assigned IP address might
change.
