45 Network configuration
Then, restart the devolo Magic adapter (see Chap-
ter 4.7.3 Configuration) to ensure that your chan-
ges take effect.
IPv6 configuration
If you want automatic IP address assignment and
there is already a DHCP server present on the net-
work for assigning IP addresses (e.g. your Internet
router), enable the Retrieve network settings
from a DHCP server option to ensure that the
devolo Magic 2 WiFi next automatically receives
an address from it.
If you want to assign a static IP address, make
entries accordingly for the Address, Subnet mask,
Default gateway and DNS server fields.
Confirm your settings by clicking the Disk icon.

In the System area, you can configure the settings
for security and other devolo Magic adapter device
functions.

on the devolo Magic adapter, including the current
date and time, time zone, MAC address of the
devolo Magic 2 WiFi next
adapter, status of the Wi-Fi and Powerline LEDs
and the two operating buttons.

4.7.2 Management

System information lets you enter user-defined
names in the Device name (hostname) and
Device location fields. Both pieces of information
are particularly helpful if multiple devolo Magic
adapters are to be used and identified in the
network.
