This section discusses how to configure the NWA/WAC’s VLAN settings.
DNS Server IP
Address
Enter the IP address of the DNS server.
IPv6 Address
Assignment
Enable Stateless
Address Auto-
configuration
(SLAAC)
Select this to enable IPv6 stateless auto-configuration on the NWA/WAC. The NWA/WAC
will generate an IPv6 address itself from a prefix obtained from an IPv6 router in the
network.
Link-Local
Address
This displays the IPv6 link-local address and the network prefix that the NWA/WAC
generates itself for the LAN interface.
IPv6 Address/
Prefix Length
Enter the IPv6 address and the prefix length for the LAN interface if you want to use a
static IP address. This field is optional.
The prefix length indicates what the left-most part of the IP address is the same for all
computers in the network, that is, the network address.
Gateway Enter the IPv6 address of the default outgoing gateway using colon (:) hexadecimal
notation.
Metric Enter the priority of the gateway (if any) on the LAN interface. The NWA/WAC decides
which gateway to use based on this priority. The lower the number, the higher the
priority. If two or more gateways have the same priority, the NWA/WAC uses the one
that was configured first.
DHCPv6 Client Select this option to set the NWA/WAC to act as a DHCPv6 client.
DUID This field displays the DHCP Unique IDentifier (DUID) of the NWA/WAC, which is unique
and used for identification purposes when the NWA/WAC is exchanging DHCPv6
messages with others. See Appendix B on page 208 for more information.
Request Address Select this option to get an IPv6 address from the DHCPv6 server.
DHCPv6 Request

server.
