Defining IPv6 Addresses
To assign an IPv6 address to an IPv6 Interface:
STEP 1 Click Administration > Management Interface > IPv6 Addresses
The IPv6 Addresses page opens.
STEP 2 To filter the table, select an interface name, and click Go. The interface is displayed
in the IPv6 Address Table.
STEP 3 Click Add. The
Add IPv6 Address
page opens.
STEP 4 Enter values for the fields.
• IPv6 Interface—Displays the interface on which the IPv6 address is to be
defined.
• IPv6 Address Type—Select Link Local or Global as the type of IPv6
address to add.
- Link Local—The IPv6 address uniquely identifies hosts on a single
network link. A link local address has a prefix of FE80, is not routable, and
can be used for communication only on the local network. Only one link
local address is supported. If a link local address exists on the interface,
this entry replaces the address in the configuration.
- Global—The IPv6 address is a global Unicast IPV6 type that is visible and
reachable from other networks.
