5. From the Internet Connection Type menu, select Auto Config.
The modem router automatically detects the information in the following fields:
• Router's IPv6 Address On WAN. This field shows the IPv6 address that is acquired for the modem router'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 modem router'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.
6. If your ISP gave you a specific user class, in the DHCP User Class (If Required) field, enter the user class.
If your ISP did not give you a specific user class, leave this field blank.
7. To specify a domain name, in the DHCP Domain Name (If Required) field, enter a domain name.
If your ISP gave you a specific domain name, enter it in this field. (For example, Earthlink Cable might require
a host name of home, and Comcast sometimes supplies a domain name.)
If your ISP did not give you a specific domain name, you can either leave this field blank or enter the domain
name of your IPv6 ISP. (Do not enter the domain name for the IPv4 ISP here.) For example, if your ISP's mail
server is mail.xxx.yyy.zzz, enter xxx.yyy.zzz as the domain name.
8. Select an IP Address Assignment radio button:
• Use DHCP Server. The modem router assigns IPv6 addresses to the devices on your home network (the
LAN) through a DHCP server. This method passes more information to LAN devices, but some IPv6 systems
might not support the DHCPv6 client function.
• Auto Config. This is the default setting.
9. To specify the interface ID for the IPv6 address of the modem router's LAN interface, select the Use This
Interface ID check box, and enter the interface ID.
