Ipv6 Addresses - HP M210 Configuration And Administration Manual

•
IEEE 802.1 1b/g/n: (Compatibility mode.) Up to 1 1 Mbps for 802.1 1b, 54 Mbps for
802.1 1g, and 300 Mbps for 802.1 1n in the 2.4 GHz frequency band. If support for
802.1 1b/g is not required, it is recommended that you choose one of the 802.1 1n-only
modes.
•
5 GHz IEEE 802.1 1n: (Pure 802.1 1n) Up to 300 Mbps in the 802.1 1n 5 GHz frequency
band.
•
2.4 GHz IEEE 802.1 1n: (Pure 802.1 1n) Up to 300 Mbps in the 802.1 1n 2.4 GHz
frequency band.
Get an IP address
You can use these settings to configure IP addresses and how they are assigned. The IPv4
configuration field displays by default. To configure IPv6 settings, click the + to the left of
IPv6.
You can configure addresses for both protocol versions. Only IPv4 supports DHCP.
IPv4 addresses
You can select DHCP (the default) so that the IP address will be assigned by a DHCP server on
the network. Or, select Static IP to statically configure an address, subnet mask, and default
gateway.

IPv6 addresses

You can configure a static IPv6 address and enable autoconfigured IPv6 addressing.
Entering a static IPv6 address
Enter a Static IPv6 address, specify the Static IPv6 address prefix length, and enter
the Default IPv6 gateway address.
The Static IPv6 address status shows the configured address. The possible values are as
follows:
•
Operational: The IP address has been verified as unique on the LAN and is usable on
the interface.
•
Tentative: The M210 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 traffic, except to exchange messages with other network nodes
to verify the uniqueness of the address.
•
Blank (no value): No IP address is assigned or the assigned address is not operational.
The IPv6 link local address is used by the local physical link. The link local address is not
configurable and is assigned by using the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery process.
Enabling auto configuration
When IPv6 auto configuration is enabled, the M210 builds a global IPv6 address by
applying an algorithm to the device MAC address and the network prefix that is sent by routers
in router advertisements. The autoconfigured addresses display in the IPv6 autoconfigured
global addresses list.
