II. Configuring the LAN Settings
After finished the WAN settings for IPv6, please configure the LAN settings to make the
router’s client get the IPv6 address.
1.
Access into the web user interface of Viogr2860. Open
LAN
>>
General Setup
. Click
the
IPv6
button.
Note
: Only the subnet of
LAN1
supports IPv6 feature.
2.
In the field of
Router Advertisement Server
, the default setting is
Enable
. The client’s
PC will ask RADVD service for the Prefix of IPv6 address automatically, and generate
an Interface ID by itself to compose a full and unique IPv6 address.
3.
In the field of
DHCPv6 Server
, when DHCPv6 service is enabled, you can assign
available IPv6 address for the client manually.
Note:
When both mechanisms are enabled, the client can determine which mechanism
to be used (e.g., the default mechanism for Windows7 is RADVD).

III. Confirming IPv6 Service Run Successfully
1.
Make sure you have obtained the correct IPv6 IP address. Get into MS-DOS interface
and type the command of “ipconfig”. Refer to the following figure.
From the above figure we can see IPv6 IP address has been captured by the system.
2.
Use the Ping command to ping any IPv6 address indicating an IPv6 website. For
example, www.kame.net is a website supporting IPv4 IP and IPv6 IP services. Its IPv6
address is seen with a format of 2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7.
After getting the above message, it means the IPv6 service has been activated
successfully.

3.
Connect to the website for IPv6. Open a web browser and type an URL of IPv6, e.g.,
www.kame.net. If your computer accesses into the website by using IPv6 address, you
may see a turtle dancing on the screen. If not, only a steady turtle will be seen.
If you can see a turtle dancing on the screen, that means IPv6 service is ready for you to
access and utilize.
