Most people can leave this field blank, but if your ISP gave you a specific host name,
enter it here.
7. (Optional) In the Domain Name (if Required) field, enter a domain name.
You can type the domain name of your IPv6 ISP. Do not enter the domain name for
the IPv4 ISP here. For example, if your ISP's mail server is mail.xxx.yyy.zzz, type
xxx.yyy.zzz as the domain name. If your ISP provided a domain name, type it in this
field. For example, Earthlink Cable might require a host name of home, and Comcast
sometimes supplies a domain name.

this option. Enter the IP address of your ISP's primary DNS server. If a secondary
DNS server address is available, enter it also.

your home network (the LAN).
10. (Optional) In the LAN Setup section, select the Use This Interface ID check box and
specify the interface ID to be used for the IPv6 address of the access point's LAN
interface.
If you do not specify an ID here, the access point generates one automatically from
its MAC address.
