Configuration.
To configure IPv6 address information for an interface:
1. Use Interface to select the interface to be configured. When the selection is changed, a
screen refresh will occur causing all fields to be updated for the newly selected port. All
physical interfaces are valid.
2. Use IPv6 Prefix/Prefix Length to specify the IPv6 prefix with prefix length for an interface.
3. Use EUI-64 to specify 64 bit unicast prefix.
4. Use Valid Lifetime to specify router advertisement per prefix time to consider prefix valid for
purposes of on link determination. Valid lifetime must be in the range 0 to 4294967295.
5. Use Preferred Lifetime to specify router advertisement per prefix time. An auto configured
address generated from this prefix is preferred. Preferred lifetime must be in range 0 to
4294967295.
6. Use OnLink Flag to specify selected prefix can be used for on-link determination. Default
value is enable. This selector lists the two options for on-link flag: enable and disable.
7. Use Autonomous Flag to specify selected prefix can be used for autonomous address
configuration. Default value is disable. This selector lists the two options for autonomous
flag: enable and disable.
8. Click ADD to add a new IPv6 address to the interface.
9. Click DELETE to delete a existing IPv6 address entry from the interface.
