Configuring IPv6 LAN Connections
In the IPv6 mode, the LAN DHCP server is enabled by default (similar to the IPv4
mode). The DHCPv6 server assigns IPv6 addresses from configured address
pools that use the IPv6 prefix length assigned to the LAN.
To configure IPv6 LAN settings on your device, you must first set the IP mode to
one of the following modes:
LAN:IPv6, WAN:IPv4
LAN:IPv6, WAN:IPv6
LAN:IPv4+IPv6, WAN:IPv4
LAN:IPv4+IPv6, WAN:IPv4+IPv6
See
Configuring the IP Mode
for more information on how to set the IP mode.
To configure IPv6 LAN settings:
STEP 1
Choose
Networking
>
IPv6
>
IPv6 LAN Configuration
.
STEP

Enter the following information to configure the IPv6 LAN address:
STEP

Click
Save
or continue to configure IPv6 DHCP LAN settings.
STEP
4
Enter the following information to configure the DHCPv6 settings:
IPv6 Address
Enter the IPv6 address of the device.
The default IPv6 address for the gateway is fec0::1
(or FEC0:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0001).
You can change this 128-bit IPv6 address based on
your network requirements.
IPv6 Prefix Length
Enter the IPv6 prefix length.
The IPv6 network (subnet) is identified by the initial
bits of the address called the prefix. By default, the
prefix is 64 bits long.
All hosts in the network have the identical initial bits
for their IPv6 address; you set the number of
common initial bits in the network addresses in this
field.

DHCP Status
Check to enable the DHCPv6 server.
When enabled, the device assigns an IP address
within a specified range and provides additional
information to any LAN endpoint that requests
DHCP addresses.
Domain Name
(Optional) Domain name of the DHCPv6 server.
Server Preference
Server preference level of this DHCP server. DHCP
advertise messages with the highest server
preference value to a LAN host are preferred over
other DHCP server advertise messages.
The default is 255.
Static DNS 1
IPv6 address of the primary DNS server on the ISP
IPv6 network.
Static DNS 2
IPv6 address of the secondary DNS server on the
ISP IPv6 network.
Client Lease Time
Client lease time duration (in seconds) for which
IPv6 addresses are leased to endpoints on the
LAN.
Start Address
Starting IPv6 address of the pool.
End Address
Ending IPv6 address of the pool.
IPv6 Prefix Length
Prefix length that determines the number of
common initial bits in the network addresses.

Configuring IPv6 Static Routing
You can configure static routes to direct packets to the destination network. A
static route is a predetermined pathway that a packet must travel to reach a
specific host or network.
Some ISPs require static routes to build a routing table instead of using dynamic
routing protocols. Static routes do not require CPU resources to exchange routing
information with a peer router.
You can also use static routes to reach peer routers that do not support dynamic
routing protocols. Static routes can be used together with dynamic routes. Be
careful not to introduce routing loops in your network.
To create a static route:
STEP 1
Choose
Networking
>

>

Static Routing
.
STEP
2
In the list of static routes, click
Add Row
.
STEP
3
Enter this information:
Name
Route name.
Destination
IPv6 address of the destination host or network for
this route.
Prefix Length
Number of prefix bits in the IPv6 address that define
the destination subnet.
Gateway
IPv6 address of the gateway through which the
destination host or network can be reached.
Interface
Interface for the route:
LAN
,
WAN
, or
6to4
.
Metric
Priority of the route. Choose a value between 2 and 15.
If multiple routes to the same destination exist, the
route with the lowest metric is used.
Active
Check to make the route active. When you add a route
in an inactive state, it is listed in the routing table, but is
not used by the device.
Entering an inactive route is useful if the route is not
available when you add the route. When the network
becomes available, you can enable the route.

Configuring Routing (RIPng)
RIP Next Generation (RIPng) is a routing protocol based on the distance vector
(D-V) algorithm. RIPng uses UDP packets to exchange routing information through
port 521.
RIPng uses a hop count to measure the distance to a destination. The hop count is
referred to as metric, or cost. The hop count from a router to a directly connected
network is 0. The hop count between two directly connected routers is 1. When
the hop count is greater than or equal to 16, the destination network or host is
unreachable.
By default, the routing update is sent every 30 seconds. If the router receives no
routing updates from a neighbor after 180 seconds, the routes learned from the
neighbor are considered as unreachable. After another 240 seconds, if no routing
update is received, the router removes these routes from the routing table.
On your device, RIPng is disabled by default.
To configure RIPng:
STEP 1
Choose
Networking
>
IPv6
>
Routing (RIPng)

Configuring Tunneling
IPv6-to-IPv4 tunneling (6-to-4 tunneling) allows IPv6 packets to be transmitted
over an IPv4 network. IPv4 to IPv6 tunneling (4-to-6 tunneling) allows IPv4 packets
to be transmitted over an IPv6 network.
6 to 4 Tunneling
6-to-4 tunneling is typically used when a site or end user wants to connect to the
IPv6 Internet using the existing IPv4 network.
To configure 6-to-4 tunneling:
STEP 1
Select
Networking
