Requirements for Entering IPv6 Addresses
IPv6 addresses are denoted by eight groups of hexadecimal quartets that are separated by
colons. You can reduce any four-digit group of zeros within an IPv6 address to a single zero
or omit it. The following errors invalidate an IPv6 address:
•
More than eight groups of hexadecimal quartets
•
More than four hexadecimal characters in a quartet
•
More than two colons in a row
Use Auto Detect for an IPv6 Internet Connection
To set up an IPv6 Internet connection through auto detection:
1.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Type http://www.routerlogin.net or http://www.routerlogin.com.
A login screen displays.
3.
Enter the gateway user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home screen displays.
4.
Select Advanced > Advanced Setup > IPv6.
The IPv6 screen displays.
5.
In the Internet Connection Type list, select Auto Detect.
6.
Click the Apply button.
The screen adjusts.
The gateway automatically detects the information in the following fields:
•
Connection Type. This field indicates the connection type that is detected.
•
Router's IPv6 Address on WAN. This field shows the IPv6 address that is acquired
for the gateway's WAN (or Internet) interface. The number after the slash (/) is the
length of the prefix, which is also indicated by the underline (_) under the IPv6
address. If no address is acquired, the field displays Not Available.
•
Router's IPv6 Address on LAN. This field shows the IPv6 address that is acquired
for the gateway's LAN interface. The number after the slash (/) is the length of the
prefix, which is also indicated by the underline (_) under the IPv6 address. If no
address is acquired, the field displays Not Available.
7.
Select an IP Address Assignment radio button.
•
Use DHCP Server. This method passes more information to LAN devices, but some
IPv6 systems might not support the DHCv6 client function.
