IPv6 addresses must be entered in the proper notation. IPv6 address
can be entered in the most common notation, as eight groups of
four hexadecimal digits. 2001:0ff8:55cc:033b:1319:8a2e:01de:1374
is an example of a valid IPv6 address. Also, if one or more of the
four-digit groups contains 0000, you can omit the zeros and replace
them with two colons (::), as long as there is only one double colon
used in an address. Using this notation,
2001:0ff8:0000:0000:0000:0000:01de:1374 is the same as
2001:0ff8::01de:1374.
You can configure IPv4 addresses on the operator panel or Web client.
You can set the library to use IPv6 via the operator panel, but you must
use the Web client to configure a static IPv6 address.
