Static IP — To configure a static IPv6 address for the Internet access port,
the following items must be specified.
IP Address — Specifies an IPv6 address for the access point. An IPv6

parated 16-bit hexadecimal values. One double colon may be used

fill the undefined fields.
Default Gateway — The IPv6 address of the default gateway, which is
used if the requested destination address is not on the local subnet.

the IPv6 address in the text field provided.
