Configure the IPv6 Settings

1. If using IPv6, enter or select the appropriate IPv6-specific network
settings in the IPv6 section:
a. Select the IPv6 checkbox to activate the fields in the section and
enable IPv6 on the device.
b. Enter a Global/Unique IP Address. This is the IP address
assigned to the KX II-101-V2.
c. Enter the Prefix Length. This is the number of bits used in the
IPv6 address.
d. Enter the Gateway IP Address.
e. Link-Local IP Address. This address is automatically assigned to
the device, and is used for neighbor discovery or when no
routers are present. Read-Only
f. Zone ID. Identifies the device the address is associated with.
Read-Only
g. Select an IP Auto Configuration option:

None (Static IP) - this option requires you manually specify the
network parameters.
This is the recommended option because the KX II-101-V2 is an
infrastructure device, and its IP address should not change.
Select this option if you want to ensure redundant failover
capabilities should the primary Ethernet port (or the switch/router
to which it is connected) fail. If it fails, KX II-101-V2 switches to
the secondary network port with the same IP address, ensuring
their is no interruption.
If None is selected, the following Network Basic Settings fields
are enabled: Global/Unique IP Address, Prefix Length, and
Gateway IP Address allowing you to manually set the IP
configuration.

Router Discovery - use this option to automatically assign IPv6
addresses that have Global or Unique Local significance beyond
that of the Link Local, which only applies to a directly connected
subnet.
2. Next, configure DNS settings.
