If it fails, the configured IPv6 address is zero. The router may delay responding to
a router solicitation for a few seconds; the total time needed to complete
auto-configuration can be significantly longer.
Provide the IPv6 address of this media converter.
IPv6 address is in 128-bit records represented as eight fields of up to four
hexadecimal digits with a colon separating each field (:). For example,
'fe80::215:c5ff:fe03:4dc7'.
The symbol '::' is a special syntax that can be used as a shorthand way of
representing multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous zeros; but it can only appear
once. It also uses the following legally IPv4 address. For example, ':192.1.2.34'.
Provide the IPv6 Prefix of this media converter. The allowed range is from 1
through 128.
Provide the IPv6 gateway address of this media converter.
IPv6 address is in 128-bit records represented as eight fields of up to four

To enable this Managed Media Converter to accept a configuration from a
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol version 6 (DHCPv6) server. By default,
the Managed Media Converter does not perform DHCPv6 client actions.
DHCPv6 clients request the delegation of long-lived prefixes that they can push
to individual local hosts.
