AC1200 WiFi DSL Modem Router—Essentials Edition Model D6100
The modem router automatically detects the information in the Router’s IPv6 Address On
LAN field. This field shows the IPv6 address that is acquired for the modem router’s LAN
interface. The number after the slash (/) is the length of the prefix, which is also indicated
by the underline (_) under the IPv6 address.
7. Select a Remote 6to4 Relay Router radio button:
• Auto.
Your modem router uses any remote relay modem router that is available on
the Internet. This is the default setting.
• Static IP Address. Enter the static IPv4 (not
IPv6) address of the remote relay
modem router. Your IPv6 ISP usually provides this address.
8. Select an IP Address Assignment radio button:
• Use DHCP Server. The modem router assigns IPv6 addresses to the devices on your
home network (the LAN) through a DHCP server
. This method passes more information
to LAN devices, but some IPv6 systems might not support the DHCv6 client function.
This is the default setting.
• Auto Config.
The modem router automatically configures its IPv6 address
based on the
IPv6 protocol.
9. To specify the interface ID for the IPv6 address of the modem router’s
LAN interface, select
the Use This Interface ID check box, and enter the interface ID.
If you do not specify an ID here, the modem router generates one automatically from its
MAC address.
