10.2 IPv6 General Prefixes
IPv6 General Prefixes are usually distributed by IPv6 providers. They can be statically as-
signed or obtained through DHCP. In most cases, they define /48 or /56 networks. You can
derive /64 subnets from these prefixes and have them distributed in your network.
General Prefixes have two key advantages:
• A single route is sufficient for all traffic between the provider and the customer.
• If your provider assigns a new General Prefix through DHCP or changes the static Gen-
eral Prefix assigned to you, there is little or no configuration to be done: In the case of
DHCP you obtain the new General Prefix automatically; and in the case of a statically as-
signed General Prefix, you need to introduce it into your system once. All subnets and
IPv6 addresses derived from the General Prefix change automatically after an update.
In order to IPv6 you need to configure how subnets and IPV6 addresses are created and
distributed (see Configuring IPv6 addresses in Interfaces on page 134 and the menu LAN-
>IP Configuration->Interfaces for the IPv6-relevant parameters.
