XPort® Pro Lx6 Embedded Device Server User Guide 24
To Configure Network 1 Interface Settings
Using Web Manager
To modify Ethernet (eth0) settings, click Network on the menu and select Network 1 ->
Interface -> Configuration.
DHCPv6 Client Select to turn On or Off. At bootup, after the physical link is up, the XPort Pro Lx6
will attempt to obtain IPv6 settings from a DHCPv6 server and will periodically
renew these settings with the server.
On: enables the XPort Pro Lx6 server to obtain IPv6 setting from a DHCPv6
server upon bootup.
Off: enables the XPort Pro Lx6 server to obtain IPv4 settings from a DHCP
server upon bootup.
Note: Overrides the configured IP address/mask, gateway, hostname, and
domain. Changing this value requires you to reboot the device. Within Web
Manager, click Renew to renew the DHCPV6 lease.
IPv6 AutoConf Select to turn On or Off.
On: will provide an additional IPv6 addres in addition to the displayed Link Local
IPv6 address and DHCPv6 IPv6 address. This is the auto configuration address
provided by the IPv6 router.
Off: will not display auto configured IPv6 address in CLI or WebUI.
IPv6 Address Enter the static IPv6 address to use for the interface.
Note: This setting is used if Static IPv6 is active (DHCPv6 is Disabled). Changing
this value requires a reboot. When DHCPv6 is enabled, the XPort Pro Lx6 tries to
obtain an IPv6 address from a DHCPv6 server. If it cannot, then XPort Pro Lx6
generates and uses a Link local IPv6 address.
IPv6 Default Gateway Enter the default IPv6 Default Gateway.
Hostname Enter the hostname for the interface. It must begin with a letter or number, continue
with a sequence of letters, numbers, or hyphens, and end with a letter or number.
This setting will take effect immediately, but will not register the hostname with a
DNS server until the next reboot.
Domain Enter the domain name suffix for the interface.
Note: This setting will be used when either Static IP or Auto IP is active, or if
DHCP/BOOTP is active and no Domain Suffix was acquired from the server.
DHCP Client ID Enter the ID if the DHCPV6 server requires a DHCPV6 Client ID option. The
DHCPV6 server’s lease table shows IP addresses and MAC addresses for
devices. The lease table shows the Client ID, in hexadecimal notation, instead of
the XPort Pro Lx6 MAC address.
Primary DNS Enter the IP address of the primary Domain Name Server.
Note: This setting will be used when either Static IP or Auto IP is active, or if
DHCP/BOOTP is active and no DNS server was acquired from the server.
Secondary DNS Enter the IP address of the secondary Domain Name Server.
Note: This setting will be used when either Static IP or Auto IP is active, or if
DHCP/BOOTP is active and no DNS server was acquired from the server.
MTU When DHCP is enabled, the MTU size is (usually) provided with the IP address.
When not provided or using a static configuration, this value is used. The MTU
size can be from 1280 to 1500 bytes, the default being 1500 bytes.
