DESCRIPTION
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 AMG1302-T11C. This allows the
AMG1302-T11C to check MLD packets passing through it and learn the multicast
group membership. It helps reduce multicast traffic.
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.
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.
Select this option to automatically obtain an IPv6 network prefix from the
service provider or an uplink router.
Select this option to configure a fixed IPv6 address for the AMG1302-T11C's LAN
IPv6 address.
If you select static IPv6 address, enter the IPv6 address prefix that the
AMG1302-T11C uses for the LAN IPv6 address.
If you select static IPv6 address, enter the IPv6 prefix length that the AMG1302-
T11C 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.
Enter the preferred lifetime for the prefix.
Enter the valid lifetime for the prefix.
Select how you want to obtain an IPv6 address:
Stateless: The AMG1302-T11C uses IPv6 stateless autoconfiguration. RADVD
(Router Advertisement Daemon) is enabled to have the AMG1302-T11C send
IPv6 prefix information in router advertisements periodically and in response to
router solicitations. DHCPv6 server is disabled.
Stateful: The AMG1302-T11C uses IPv6 stateful autoconfiguration. The DHCPv6
server is enabled to have the AMG1302-T11C act as a DHCPv6 server and pass
IPv6 addresses to DHCPv6 clients.
Stateless and Stateful: The AMG1302-T11C uses both IPv6 stateless and
stateful autoconfiguration. The LAN IPv6 clients can obtain IPv6 addresses either
through router advertisements or through DHCPv6.
Select how the AMG1302-T11C provide DNS server and domain name
information to the clients:
Stateless: The AMG1302-T11C provides DNS information through router
advertisements.
Stateful: The AMG1302-T11C provides DNS information through DHCPv6.
Stateless and Stateful: The AMG1302-T11C provides DNS information through
both router advertisements and DHCPv6.
Use this field to Enable or Disable DHCPv6 server on the AMG1302-T11C.
