• Use This MAC Address—Choose this option if you want to manually enter a
MAC Address that is expected by your ISP.
If you chose not to use the default MAC address, in the MAC Address field, enter a
MAC address in the format of XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX, where X is a number from 0
through 9 or a letter from A through F.
Click Save.

Configuring the WAN for an IPv6 Network

Configuring WAN properties for an IPv6 network differs depending on which type
of Internet connection you have. See the sections below for detailed instructions.
Before configuring any WAN properties for an IPv6 network, you must configure the
routing mode. Choose Networking > IPv6 > Routing Mode and select IPv4 / IPv6
mode. Click Save.
The Cisco RV 120W can be configured to be a DHCPv6 client of the ISP for this
WAN or a static IPv6 address provided by the ISP can be assigned.

Configuring a Static IP Address

If your ISP assigns you a fixed address to access the Internet, choose this option.
The information needed for configuring a static IP address can be obtained from
your ISP.
In the Internet Address field, choose Static IPv6.
Enter the IPv6 IP address assigned to your router.
Enter the IPv6 prefix length defined by the ISP. The IPv6 network (subnet) is
identified by the initial bits of the address which are called the prefix (for example,
in the IP address 2001:0DB8:AC10:FE01::, 2001 is the prefix). All hosts in the
network have identical initial bits for their IPv6 address; the number of common
initial bits in the network's addresses is set in this field.
Enter the default IPv6 gateway address, or the IP address of the server at the ISP
that this router will connect to for accessing the internet.
