LAN
IPv6 Addresses
NOTE
Cisco Small Business WAP371 Wireless Access Point Administration Guide
- DHCPv6—The IPv6 address is assigned by a DHCPv6 server.
- Static IPv6—You manually configure the IPv6 address. The IPv6 address must be
either full explicit address (eight hexadecimal quads separated by colons,
xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx or the condensed format like
2001:DB8::FFFF:CA0:0:0.
When Static IPv6 is configured, then DHCPv6 will be down. When DHCPv6 is configured,
Static IPv6 can be operational if configuration exists.
• IPv6 Administration Mode—Enables IPv6 management access.
• IPv6 Auto Configuration Administration Mode—Enables IPv6 automatic address
configuration on the WAP device.
When enabled, the AP learns its IPv6 addresses and gateway by processing the Router
Advertisements received on the LAN port. The WAP device can have multiple
autoconfigured IPv6 addresses.
• Static IPv6 Address—The static IPv6 address. The WAP device can have a static IPv6
address even if addresses have already been configured automatically.
• Static IPv6 Address Prefix Length—The prefix length of the static address, which is an
integer in the range of 0 to 128. The default is 0.
• Static IPv6 Address Status—One of the following values appears:
- Operational—The IP address has been verified as unique on the LAN and is usable
on the interface.
- Tentative—The WAP device initiates a duplicate address detection (DAD) process
automatically when a static IP address is assigned. An IPv6 address is in the
tentative state while it is being verified as unique on the network. While in this state,
the IPv6 address cannot be used to transmit or receive ordinary traffic.
- Blank (no value)—No IP address is assigned or the assigned address is not
operational.
• IPv6 Autoconfigured Global Addresses—If the WAP device has been assigned one or
more IPv6 addresses automatically, the addresses are listed.
• IPv6 Link Local Address—The IPv6 address used by the local physical link. The link
local address is not configurable and is assigned by using the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery
process.
• Default IPv6 Gateway—The statically configured default IPv6 gateway.
• IPv6 DNS Nameservers—Select one of the following values:
