Static IPv6
• IPv6 address: Enter the IPv6 address here; IPv6 addresses have a size of 128 bits.
Therefore, IPv6 has a vastly enlarged address space compared to IPv4. An example
of an IPv6 address is “2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334”
• Prefix Length: enter the Prefix length of the Subnet Mask here; The subnet mask was
the forerunner of the modern IP address prefix length. For example a subnet mask of
255.255.255.0 conveys exactly the same information as a prefix length of /24, a subnet
mask of 255.255.255.240 is equivalent to a prefix length of /28.
• Gateway Global IP Address: Enter the Default Gateway address here; A default
gateway is the node on the computer network that the network software uses when an
IP address does not match any other routes in the routing table.
• IPv6 DNS (WAN IPv6 address) settings: You may select to obtain DNS server address
automatically or use following DNS address. You may add IPv6 address Primary DNS
address and secondary DNS address.
• IPv6 SPI: The firewall settings section is an advance feature used to allow or deny
traffic from passing through the device.
• LAN IPv6 address settings: Please enter “LAN IPv6 address” and ignore the “LAN
IPv6 Link-Local address”.
