• Outside - Packets passing through the NAT on the way back to the LAN are searched against the records kept by the NAT
engine. There the destination IP address is changed back to the specific private class IP address in order to reach the
LAN over the switch managed network.
• None - No NAT activity takes place. This is the default setting.

(Zeroconf). Zeroconf is a group of technologies that include service discovery, address assignment and hostname resolution.
Bonjour locates devices such as printers, other computers and services that these computers offer over a local network.
Bonjour provides a general method to discover services on a local area network (LAN). It allows users to set up a network
without any configuration. Services such as printers, scanners and file-sharing servers can be found using Bonjour. Bonjour

DHCPv6 is a networking protocol for configuring IPv6 hosts with IP addresses, IP prefixes or
other configuration attributes required on an IPv6 network. This setting is disabled by default.
Specify a 32 character maximum request prefix for prefix delegation from a DHCPv6 server
over this virtual interface. Devices use prefixes to distinguish destinations that reside on-link
from those reachable using a router.
Select this option to request DHCPv6 options on this virtual interface. DHCPv6 options provide
configuration information for a node that must be booted using the network rather than
locally. This setting is disabled by default.
