Parameter Description
• Auto Configuration: Enable IPv6 auto-configuration by checking this box. If fails, the configured IPv6 address is zero. The r
outer may delay responding to a router solicitation for a few seconds, the total time needed to complete auto-configuration can
be significantly longer.
• Address: Provide the IPv6 address of this switch. IPv6 address is represented in 128-bit records as eight fields of up to four
hexadecimal digits with a colon separating each field (:). For example, in “fe80::215:c5ff:fe03:4dc7“, the symbol “::“ is a special
syntax that can be used as a shorthand way of representing multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous zeros; but it can only appear
once. It can also represent a legally valid IPv4 address. For example, “::192.1.2.34“.
• Prefix: Provide the IPv6 Prefix of this switch. The range is 1 to 128.
• Router: Provide the IPv6 gateway address of this switch. IPv6 address is represented in 128-bit records as eight fields of up to
four hexadecimal digits with a colon separating each field (:). For example, in “fe80::215:c5ff:fe03:4dc7“, the symbol “::“ is a
special syntax that can be used as a shorthand way of representing multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous zeros; but it can only
appear once. It can also represent a legally valid IPv4 address. For example, “::192.1.2.34“.
