1.2.5 IPv6 Support

IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), is designed to enhance IP address size and features. The increase in
IPv6 address size to 128 bits (from the 32-bit IPv4 address) allows up to 3.4 x 10
of writing, the Switch supports the following features.
• Static address assignment and stateless auto-configuration
• Neighbor Discovery Protocol (a protocol used to discover other IPv6 devices in a network)
• Remote Management using ping, SNMP, SSH, telnet, HTTP and FTP services
• ICMPv6 to report errors encountered in packet processing and perform diagnostic functions, such as
"ping"
• IPv4/IPv6 dual stack; the Switch can run IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time
• DHCPv6 client and relay
• Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) snooping and proxy

1.3 Ways to Manage the Switch

Use any of the following methods to manage the Switch.
• NCC (Zyxel Nebula Control Center). With the NCC, you can remotely manage and monitor the
Switch through a cloud-based network management system. See the NCC User's Guide for detailed
information about how to access the NCC and manage your Switch through the NCC. See the NCC
User's Guide for how to configure Nebula managed devices.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the Switch using a (supported)
web browser. See
• Command Line Interface. Line commands offer an alternative to the Web Configurator and in some
cases are necessary to configure advanced features. See the CLI Reference Guide.
• FTP. Use File Transfer Protocol for firmware upgrades and configuration backup or restore. See
87.3.1 on page
• SNMP. The Switch can be monitored and/or managed by an SNMP manager. See
page 191.
