IPv6 Stateless Autoconfiguration
If the SV1108IPEXT/POW’s network environment contains a device (such as a router)
that supports the IPv6 Stateless Autoconfiguration function, the SV1108IPEXT/POW
can obtain its prefix information from that device in order to generate its IPv6 address.
For example, 2001::74ff:fe6e:59.
As above, the address is displayed at the bottom of the Device Information page.
Once you have determined what the IPv6 address is, you can use it when logging in
from a browser or the Win and Java Client AP programs.
For Example:
If you are logging in from a browser, you would key in
or the URL bar.
If you are logging in with the AP program, you would key:
2001::74ff:fe6e:59
Port Forwarding
For devices located behind a router, port forwarding allows the router to pass data
coming in over a specific port to a specific device. By setting the port forwarding
parameters, you tell the router which device to send the data coming in over a
particular port to.
For example, if the SV1108IPEXT/POW connected to a particular router has an IP
address of 192.168.1.180, you would log into your router’s setup program and access
the Port Forwarding (sometimes referred to as Virtual Server) configuration page. You
would then specify 192.168.1.180 for the IP address and the port number you want
opened for it (9000 for internet access, for example).
Since configuration setup can vary somewhat for each brand of router, refer to the
router’s User Manual for specific information on configuring port forwarding for it.
