Figure 4-2-4 IPv6 Address Setting Page Screenshot
The page includes the following fields:
Object Description
 Auto Configuration Enable IPv6 auto-configuration by checking this box.
If it fails, the configured IPv6 address is zero. The router may delay responding to
a router solicitation for a few seconds; the total time needed to complete
auto-configuration can be significantly longer.
 IPv6 Address
Provide the IPv6 address of this switch.
IPv6 address is in 128-bit records represented as eight fields of up to four
hexadecimal digits with a colon separating each field (:). For example,
'fe80::215:c5ff:fe03:4dc7'.
The symbol '::' is a special syntax that can be used as a shorthand way of
representing multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous zeros; but it can only appear
once. It also uses the following legally IPv4 address. For example, '::192.1.2.34'.
Provide the IPv6 Prefix of this switch. The allowed range is 1 through 128.
 Gateway Provide the IPv6 gateway address of this switch.
 DHCPv6 Client To enable this LRP Managed Switch to accept a configuration from a Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol version 6 (DHCPv6) server. By default, the LRP
Managed Switch does not perform DHCPv6 client actions. DHCPv6 clients
request the delegation of long-lived prefixes that they can push to individual local
hosts.
