Network Configuration

³

StatelessAuto allows automatic generation the IPv6 address based
on the Link-Local address interface ID and the prefix obtained
from the router advertisements. If no Interface ID has been
obtained for the Link Local Address, the Global address will not be
generated. The mode StatelessAuto is selected by default.

³

Static allows to enter the IP Address.

Address: This field is configurable only when the Mode is Static. The
accepted range is from 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000
to FEFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF. The default address s
2001::[Interface ID], where the [Interface ID] is generated from the
source MAC address. When the IP Address field is selected for editing,
the Latest IP’s button appears on the bottom of the screen. Press the
corresponding function key to display the list of previously configured
IP addresses. Select the desired IP address from the list, if any.

³

Interface ID Coupled: This field is available when the Global IPv6
Address Mode
is Static. This field allows to couple the interface ID of
the Global address to the Link-Local source address. Enable or
Disable the Interface ID Coupled. The default setting is Enabled.

When the Interface ID Coupled is Enabled, only the 64 bit (MSB) prefix
ID in the IPv6 address is configurable, and the 64 bit (LSB) Interface ID
is not configurable (read-only).

When the Interface ID Coupled is Disabled, the 64 bit (MSB) Prefix ID
and 64 bit (LSB) Interface ID in the IPv6 address are configurable.

4. Enter the Prefix Mask. This field is only configurable when the Global

IPv6 Address Mode is Static. It allows to specify a prefix that defines the
subnet. The accepted range is
0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000 to
FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:0000:0000:0000:0000. For example:

Global Address: 2001:0DB8:0001:0002:02AA:00FF:FE11:1111

Prefix Mask: FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000

Corresponding Prefix: 2001:0DB8:0001
