NOTE The device does not support stateful address auto configuration from
a DHCPv6 server.
• Number of DAD Attempts—Enter the number of consecutive neighbor
solicitation messages that are sent while Duplicate Address Detection (DAD)
is performed on the interface’s Unicast IPv6 addresses. DAD verifies the
uniqueness of a new Unicast IPv6 address before it is assigned. New
addresses remain in a tentative state during DAD verification. Entering 0 in
this field disables duplicate address detection processing on the specified
interface. Entering 1 in this field indicates a single transmission without
follow-up transmissions.
• Send ICMPv6 Messages—Enable generating unreachable destination
messages.
• MLD Version—(Layer 3 only) IPv6 MLD version.
• IPv6 Redirects—(Layer 3 only) Select to enable sending ICMP IPv6 redirect
messages. These messages inform other devices not to send traffic to the
device, but rather to another device.
STEP 8 Click Apply to enable IPv6 processing on the selected interface. Regular IPv6
interfaces have the following addresses automatically configured:
• Link local address using EUI-64 format interface ID based on a device’s MAC
address
• All node link local Multicast addresses (FF02::1)
• Solicited-Node Multicast address (format FF02::1:FFXX:XXXX)
STEP 9 Click IPv6 Address Table to manually assign IPv6 addresses to the interface, if
required. This page is described in the Defining IPv6 Addresses section.
STEP 10 To add a tunnel, select an interface (which was defined as a tunnel in the IPv6
Interfaces page) in the IPv6 Tunnel Table and click IPv6 Tunnel Table. See IPv6
Tunnel
STEP 11 Press the Restart button to initiate refresh of the stateless information received
from the DHCPv6 server.
DHCPv6 Client Details
The Details button displays information received on the interface from a DHCPv6
server.
It is active when the interface selected is defined as a DHCPv6 stateless client.
