DESCRIPTION
Select Manual to manually enter a LAN Identifier as the interface ID to identify the
LAN interface. The LAN Identifier is appended to the IPv6 address prefix to create the
routable global IPv6 address. Select EUI64 to use the EUI-64 format to generate an
interface ID from the Ethernet MAC address.
If you selected Manual, enter the LAN Identifier in this field. The LAN identifier should
be unique and 64 bits in hexadecimal form. Every 16 bit block should be separated by
a colon as in XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX where X is a hexadecimal character. Blocks of
zeros can be represented with double colons as in XXXX:XXXX::XXXX.
Select this option to automatically obtain an IPv6 network prefix from the service
provider or an uplink router.
Select this option to configure a fixed IPv6 address for the AMG1302/AMG1202-
TSeries's LAN IPv6 address.
If you select static IPv6 address, enter the IPv6 address prefix that the AMG1302/
AMG1202-TSeries uses for the LAN IPv6 address.
If you select static IPv6 address, enter the IPv6 prefix length that the AMG1302/
AMG1202-TSeries uses to generate the LAN IPv6 address.
An IPv6 prefix length specifies how many most significant bits (starting from the left)
in the address compose the network address. This field displays the bit number of the
IPv6 subnet mask.
Enter the preferred lifetime for the prefix.
Enter the valid lifetime for the prefix.
Select this to have the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries send router advertisement
messages to the LAN hosts.
Router advertisement is a response to a router solicitation or a periodical multicast
advertisement from a router to advertise its presence and other parameters, such as
IPv6 prefix and DNS information.
Router solicitation is a request from a host to locate a router that can act as the
default router and forward packets.
Note: The LAN hosts neither generate global IPv6 addresses nor communicate with
other networks if you disable this feature.
Select this to have the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries obtain the M/O (Managed/Other)
flag setting from the service provider or uplink router.
Select this to specify the M/O flag setting manually.
Select this to have the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries indicate to hosts to obtain network
settings (such as prefix and DNS settings) through DHCPv6.
Clear this to have the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries indicate to hosts that DHCPv6 is
not available and they should use the prefix in the router advertisement message.
Select this to have the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries indicate to hosts to obtain DNS
information through DHCPv6.
Clear this to have the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries indicate to hosts that DNS
information is not available in this network.
Select this to have the Router Advertisement messages the VDSL Router sends specify
the allowed interval between Router Advertisement messages.
Enter the maximum number of network segments that a packet can cross before
reaching the destination. When forwarding an IPv6 packet, IPv6 routers are required
to decrease the Hop Limit by 1 and to discard the IPv6 packet when the Hop Limit is 0.
Possible value for this field are 0-255.
