TCP/IPv6 Settings

This section describes the procedure for setting TCP/IPv6 using the control panel. After specifying the settings for TCP/IPv6,
follow the procedure in "Settings Common to TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6, " on p. 6-16 to specify the required settings, and the
procedure in "Confirming TCP/IPv6 Settings, " on p. 6-25 to check whether the network settings are correct. If the settings for
TCP/IPv4 are already specified and you have finished specifying the settings common to TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6, only check
the network settings after completing this procedure. If you want to use IPv4 communications at the same time, follow
the procedure in "TCP/IPv4 Settings, " on p. 6-3 to specify the required settings, and the procedure in "Confirming TCP/IPv4
Settings, " on p. 6-24 to check the settings.
The machine can use up to seven of the following IPv6 addresses. With IPv6 communication, multiple IPv6 addresses can be
used at the same time.
If the IPv6 address assigned to the machine is the same as another node, you may not be able to perform IPv6 communication, even
though an IPv6 address is displayed on the screen.
Link local address (1)
An address that is only valid within the same link. A link local address is automatically set using a specific prefix (fe80::) and an interface
identifier generated from the MAC address of the machine. When the machine is using the functions of IPv6, one link local address is
always registered.
Manual address (0 or 1)
A fixed address that is set from the control panel.
