Cisco RV220W Administration Guide
The IPv6 configuration information for your RV220W is performed in several
windows in the Device Manager of the Cisco RV220W. Make sure you do the
following:
•
Configure IPv6 WAN properties—See
Network, page
•
Set the Routing Mode to IPv4/IPv6 mode—See below.
Configuring the Routing Mode
To configure IPv6 properties on the Cisco RV220W, set the routing mode to IPv6:
Choose Networking > IPv6 > Routing Mode.
Select IPv4/IPv6 and click Save. The RV220W reboots.
Configuring IPv6 Static Routing
You can configure static routes to direct packets to the destination network. A
static route is a pre-determined pathway that a packet must travel to reach a
specific host or network.
Some ISPs require static routes to build your routing table instead of using
dynamic routing protocols. Static routes do not require CPU resources to
exchange routing information with a peer router or RV220W.
You can also use static routes to reach peer routers and RV220Ws that do not
support dynamic routing protocols. Static routes can be used together with
dynamic routes. Be careful not to introduce routing loops in your network.
