DNSv6 Mode Select the DNS role (Proxy or Relay) that you want the AMG1302-T11C to act
in the IPv6 LAN network. Alternatively, select Manual and specify the DNS
servers’ IPv6 address in the fields below.
Primary DNS This field is available if you choose Manual as the DNSv6 mode. Enter the first
DNS server IPv6 address the AMG1302-T11C passes to the DHCP clients.
Secondary DNS This field is available if you choose Manual as the DNSv6 mode. Enter the
second DNS server IPv6 address the AMG1302-T11C passes to the DHCP clients.
Information refresh time Enter the number of seconds a DHCPv6 client should wait before refreshing
information retrieved from DHCPv6.
RADVD Setup
Send RA on Select this to have the AMG1302-T11C send router advertisement messages to
the LAN hosts.
Router advertisement is a response to a router solicitation or a periodical
multicast advertisement from a router to advertise its presence and other
parameters, such as IPv6 prefix and DNS information.
Router solicitation is a request from a host to locate a router that can act as the
default router and forward packets.
The LAN hosts neither generate global IPv6 addresses nor communicate with
other networks if you disable this feature.
Delegate M/O flag from
WAN
Select this to have the AMG1302-T11C obtain the M/O (Managed/Other) flag
setting from the service provider or uplink router.
Manual Select this to specify the M/O flag setting manually.
Managed config flag on Select this to have the AMG1302-T11C indicate to hosts to obtain network
settings (such as prefix and DNS settings) through DHCPv6.
Clear this to have the AMG1302-T11C indicate to hosts that DHCPv6 is not
available and they should use the prefix in the router advertisement message.
Other config flag on Select this to have the AMG1302-T11C indicate to hosts to obtain DNS
information through DHCPv6.
Clear this to have the AMG1302-T11C indicate to hosts that DNS information is
not available in this network.
Advertisement interval
option on
Select this to have the Router Advertisement messages the AMG1302-T11C
sends specify the allowed interval between Router Advertisement messages.
Hop limit Enter the maximum number of network segments that a packet can cross before
reaching the destination. When forwarding an IPv6 packet, IPv6 routers are
required to decrease the Hop Limit by 1 and to discard the IPv6 packet when the
Hop Limit is 0. Possible value for this field are 0-255.
Router Lifetime Enter the time in seconds that hosts should consider the AMG1302-T11C to be
the default router. Possible values for this field are 0-9000.
Router Preference Select the router preference (Low, Medium or High) for the AMG1302-T11C.
The AMG1302-T11C sends this preference in the router advertisements to tell
hosts what preference they should use for the AMG1302-T11C. This helps hosts
to choose their default router especially when there are multiple IPv6 router in
the network.
Make sure the hosts also support router preference to make this function work.
Reachable Time (ms) Enter the time in milliseconds that can elapse before a neighbor is detected.
Possible values for this field are 0-3600000.
Retrans Timer (ms) Enter the time in milliseconds between neighbor solicitation packet
retransmissions. Possible values for this field are 1000-4294967295.
