LABEL DESCRIPTION
Interface Select the IPv6 interface you want to configure.
Flags Select the Managed Config Flag option to have the Switch set the “managed address 
configuration” flag (the M flag) to 1 in IPv6 router advertisements, which means IPv6 hosts 
use DHCPv6 to obtain IPv6 stateful addresses. De-select the option to set the flag to 0 and 
the host will not use DHCPv6 to obtain IPv6 stateful addresses.
Select the Other Config Flag option to have the Switch set the “Other stateful 
configuration” flag (the O flag) to 1 in IPv6 router advertisements, which means IPv6 hosts 
use DHCPv6 to obtain additional configuration settings, such as DNS information. De-select 
the option to set the flag to 0 and the host will not use DHCPv6 to obtain additional 
configuration settings.
Minimum Interval Specify the minimum time interval (from 3 to 1350 seconds) at which the Switch sends 
router advertisements for this interface.
Note: The minimum time interval cannot be greater than three-quarters of the 
maximum time interval.
Maximum Interval Specify the maximum time interval (from 4 to 1800 seconds) at which the Switch sends 
router advertisements for this interface.
Lifetime Specify how long (from 0 to 9000 seconds) the router in router advertisements can be used 
as a default router for this interface.
Suppress Enable the switch button to set the Switch to not send router advertisements and 
responses to router solicitations on this interface.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses these 
changes 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.
Clear Click Clear to clear the fields to the factory defaults.
Cancel Click Cancel to not save the configuration you make and return to the last screen.
