IPv6 Internet Connection Settings
Network > IPv6 Setting
IPv6 (Internet Protocol Version 6) is a new protocol that significantly increases the
number of available Internet public IP addresses due to the 128-bit IP address structure
versus IPv4 32-bit address structure. In addition, there are several integrated
enhancements compared to the most commonly used and well known IPv4 (Internet
Protocol Version 4) such as:
• Integrated IPsec – Better Security
• Integrated Quality of Service (QoS) – Lower latency for real-time applications
• Higher Efficiency of Routing – Less transmission overhead and smaller routing
tables
• Easier configuration of addressing
Note: In order to use IPv6 Internet connection settings, it is required that your ISP
provide you with the IPv6 service. Please contact your ISP for availability and more
information about the IPv6 service.
1. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page
”
on page 31).
2. Click on Network, and click on IPv6 Setting.
3. Review the IPv6 Internet Connection settings and enter information settings specified
by your ISP.
In WAN IPv6 Setting section, enter your IPv6 settings provided by your ISP (Internet
Service Provider) to configure your router’s IPv6 WAN settings. Click Apply to save
settings.
In LAN IPv6 Setting section, enter your IPv6 settings you would like to apply to your
LAN (Local Area Network). Click Apply to save settings.
• Mode
o Disabled: IPv6 will be disabled when this option is selected
o 6to4 Only: 6to4 is provided as a transitional mechanism for migrating from IPv4
to IPv6. It allows IPv6 packets to be transmitted over an IPv4 network through
the automatic tunneling technology and routes traffic between 6to4 and IPv6
networks.
o Native IPv6 only: Native IPv6 refers to a network where IPv6 is the only
transport protocol.
o 6to4 + Native IPv6: Supports 6to4 and Native IPv6 simultaneously.
• LAN Network Prefix: Enter the LAN Network Prefix here. This can be based on
ULA (Unique Local Address).
• DNS server: IPv6 DNS address will be provided by your local ISP.
• 6to4 subnet ID: Specifies, in hexadecimal notation, a subnet ID other than 0
