LABEL DESCRIPTION
IPv6 LAN Setup
Link Local
Address
Type
Select Manual to manually enter a link local address. Select EUI64 to use the EUI-64
format to generate a link local address from the Ethernet MAC address.
IPv6
Address
If you selected Manual in the Link Local Address Type field, enter the LAN IPv6
address you want to assign to your AMG1312-T Series in hexadecimal notation, for
example, fe80::1 (factory default).
Prefix Enter the address prefix to specify how many most significant bits in an IPv6 address
compose the network address.
MLD
Snooping
Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) allows an IPv6 switch or router to discover the
presence of MLD hosts who wish to receive multicast packets and the IP addresses of
multicast groups the hosts want to join on its network. Select Enabled to activate MLD
Snooping on the AMG1312-T Series. This allows the AMG1312-T Series to check MLD
packets passing through it and learn the multicast group membership. It helps reduce
multicast traffic.
Lan Global
Identifier
Type
Select Manual to manually enter a LAN Identifier as the interface ID to identify the LAN
interface. The LAN Identifier is appended to the IPv6 address prefix to create the
routable global IPv6 address. Select EUI64 to use the EUI-64 format to generate an
interface ID from the Ethernet MAC address.
Lan
Identifier
If you selected Manual, enter the LAN Identifier in this field. The LAN identifier should
be unique and 64 bits in hexadecimal form. Every 16 bit block should be separated by a
colon as in XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX where X is a hexadecimal character. Blocks of
zeros can be represented with double colons as in XXXX:XXXX::XXXX.
LAN IPv6 Address Setting
Delegate
prefix from
WAN
Select this option to automatically obtain an IPv6 network prefix from the service
provider or an uplink router.
Static Select this option to configure a fixed IPv6 address for the AMG1312-T Series’s LAN
IPv6 address.
Static IPv6
Address
Prefix
If you select static IPv6 address, enter the IPv6 address prefix that the AMG1312-T
Series uses for the LAN IPv6 address.
Prefix
length
If you select static IPv6 address, enter the IPv6 prefix length that the AMG1312-T
Series uses to generate the LAN IPv6 address.
An IPv6 prefix length specifies how many most significant bits (starting from the left) in
the address compose the network address. This field displays the bit number of the
IPv6 subnet mask.
Preferred
Lifetime
Enter the preferred lifetime for the prefix.
Valid
Lifetime
Enter the valid lifetime for the prefix.
