Configure the fixed IPv6 addresses for the WAN connection:
•
IPv6 Address/Prefix Length
. The IPv6 address and prefix length of the gateway
WAN interface.
•
Default IPv6 Gateway
. The IPv6 address of the default IPv6 gateway for the
gateway’s WAN interface.
•
Primary DNS Server
. The primary DNS server that resolves IPv6 domain name
records for the gateway.
•
Secondary DNS Server
. The secondary DNS server that resolves IPv6 domain
name records for the gateway.
Note:
If you do not specify the DNS servers, the gateway uses the DNS
servers that are configured for the IPv4 Internet connection on the
Internet Setup screen. (See
Manually Specify an Internet Connection
Without a Login
on page
18.)
7.
Select an IP Address Assignment radio button.
•

This setting specifies how the gateway assigns IPv6 addresses to the devices on your
home network (the LAN).
8.
In the
IPv6 Address/Prefix Length

Router’s IPv6 Address on WAN
. This field shows the IPv6 address that is acquired
for the gateway’s WAN (or Internet) interface. The number after the slash (/) is the
length of the prefix, which is also indicated by the underline (_) under the IPv6
address. If no address is acquired, the field displays Not Available.

You can type the domain name of your IPv6 ISP. Do not enter the domain name for the
IPv4 ISP here. For example, if your ISP’s mail server is mail.xxx.yyy.zzz, type xxx.yyy.zzz
as the domain name. If your ISP provided a domain name, type it in this field. For
example, Earthlink Cable might require a host name of home, and Comcast sometimes
supplies a domain name.

6.
In the
Login
field, enter the login information for the ISP connection.
This is usually the name that you use in your email address. For example, if your main
mail account is [email protected], you would type JerAB in this field. Some ISPs (like
Mindspring, Earthlink, and T-DSL) require that you use your full email address when you
log in. If your ISP requires your full email address, type it in this field.

In the
Password
field, enter the password for the ISP connection.
8.
In the
Service Name
field, enter a service name.
If your ISP did not provide a service name, leave this field blank.
Note:
The default setting of the
Connection Mode
list is
Always On
to
provide a steady IPv6 connection. The gateway never terminates the
connection. If the connection is terminated, for example, when the
modem is turned off, the gateway attempts to reestablish the
connection immediately after the PPPoE connection becomes
available again.
