Table 21 Basic Setting > IPv6 Setup
LABEL DESCRIPTION
IPv6 Default Management Setup
IPv6 Interface Select an in-band interface (VLAN1~VLAN4094) or an out-of-band interface (MGMT0) to
forward IPv6 packets for which the Switch cannot find a specific interface to route. Select
NONE to not specify the default IPv6 interface.
You have to first configure an IPv6 interface in the IPv6 Interface Setup section below
before setting it as the default interface here.
Apply Click Apply to save your change to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses the
change if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to
save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Cancel Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
IPv6 Interface Setup
IPv6 Group Select to configure IPv6 settings for the in-band or the out-of-band IPv6 interface.
VID This field is available when you select Inband in the IPv6 Group field above.
Enter the VLAN identification number associated with the Switch’s IPv6 address. This is the
VLAN ID of the CPU and is used for management only. The default is "1". All ports, by default,
are fixed members of this "management VLAN" in order to manage the Switch from any port.
If a port is not a member of this VLAN, then users on that port cannot manage the Switch. To
access the Switch make sure the port that you are connected to is a member of the
management VLAN.
IPv6 Enable or disable IPv6 for this interface.
Default
Gateway
Enter the IPv6 address of the default outgoing gateway using colon (:) hexadecimal notation.
Enable IPv6
autoconfig
Select Enable to allow the IPv6 hosts connected to this interface to automatically generate
unique IPv6 addresses by combining the network prefix advertised from the router and their
interface IDs.
Add Click Add to save the new settings to the Switch. They then display in the summary table at
the bottom of the screen.
Cancel Click Cancel to reset the fields to your previous configuration.

IPv6 Status This displays whether IPv6 is enabled or not on this interface.
Default
Gateway
This displays the IPv6 address of the default gateway.
AutoConfig This displays whether IPv6 stateless autoconfiguration is enabled or not. Yes displays if this
interface allows the connected IPv6 hosts to automatically generate unique IPv6 addresses by
combining the network prefix advertised from the router and their interface IDs. Otherwise,
this field displays No.
Configuration Click the Click Here link to configure additional IPv6 settings for this interface.
