• Interface: Displays the VLAN that is currently being configured.
• State: Select Enabled to enable IPv6 on this VLAN, and Disabled to disable on
this VLAN.
• DHCPv6 Client: Select Enabled to automatically obtain the IPv6 address from
the DHCP server on the network, select Disabled to manually specify an IPv6
Address.
• Rapid Commit: You can configure the switch to support the DHCPv6 Rapid
Commit option (DHCPv6 option 14). The server and client then use a two-
message exchange (Solicit and Reply) to configure clients, rather than the
default four-message exchange (Solicit, Advertise, Request, and Reply). The
two-message exchange provides faster client configuration, and is beneficial in
environments in which networks are under a heavy load.
• IPv6 Address: Enter the full IPv6 address you would like to specify for this
connection.
• NS Retransmit Time: A constant that defines a nonzero number of seconds
between periodic reauthentication of the client. The field is 1~3600 seconds.
The default setting is 1 second.
• Delete: Click Delete to delete this entry.

Note: This step saves all configuration changes to the NV-RAM to ensure that if the
switch is rebooted or power cycled, the configuration changes will still be applied.
