Table 7: IPv6 Settings
DescriptionField
Specify the Internet addressing method that your ISP
requires. Default setting: Automatic Configuration -
DHCP
Automatic Configuration - DHCP: Use this setting if
your ISP dynamically provides an IP address. No
additional settings are required on this page.
Static IP: Use this setting if your ISP assigned a static
IP address. Complete the following fields:
• Internet IPv6 Address and Prefix Length—Enter
the IPv6 address and prefix length that was
assigned to your account by your service
provider. The public sees this address.
• Default Gateway—Enter the Gateway IPv6
Address that was provided by your ISP.
PPPoE (DSL service): Some DSL-based ISPs use
PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) to
establish Internet connections. If you are connected
to the Internet through a DSL line, check with your
ISP to see if they use PPPoE. Complete the following
fields:
• User Name and Password—Enter the username
and password that you use to log in to your ISP
network through a PPPoE connection.
• Service Name—If provided by your ISP, enter
the Service Name.
• Connect on Demand—You can configure the
ATA to disconnect your Internet connection
after a specified period of inactivity (Max Idle
Time). If your Internet connection has timed
out, this feature enables the ATA to
automatically reconnect when you try to access
the Internet again. If you choose this option,
also set the Max Idle Time.
• Keep Alive—This option keeps you connected
to the Internet indefinitely, even when your
connection sits idle. If you choose this option,
also set the Redial Period, which is the interval
at which the ATA verified Internet connectivity.
The default period is 30 seconds.
