The router automatically detects the information in the following sections:
• 6rd (IPv6 Rapid Development) Configuration: The router detects the service
provider's IPv4 network and attempts to establish an IPv6 6rd Tunnel connection.
If the IPv4 network returns 6rd parameters to the router, the page adjusts to
display the correct settings in this section.
• Router's IPv6 Address on LAN: This field shows the IPv6 address that is acquired
for the router's LAN (or local network) interface. The number after the slash (/) is
the length of the prefix, which is also indicated by the underline (_) under the
IPv6 address. If no address is acquired, the field displays Not Available.
6. Select an IPv6 Domain Name Server (DNS) Address radio button:
• Get Automatically from ISP: Your ISP uses DHCP to assign your DNS servers.
Your ISP automatically assigns this address.
• Use These DNS Servers: If you know that your ISP requires specific servers, select
this option. Enter the IP address of your ISP's primary DNS server. If a secondary
DNS server address is available, enter it also.
7. Select an IP Address Assignment radio button:
• Use DHCP Server: This method passes more information to LAN devices, but
some IPv6 systems might not support the DHCv6 client function.
• Auto Config: This is the default setting.
This setting specifies how the router assigns IPv6 addresses to the devices on your
home network.
8. (Optional) Select the Enable RIPng check box.
This selection enables RIP Next Generation (RIPng) on IPv6 Internet connections.
RIPng is an extension of Routing Information Protocol (RIP) that supports IPv6. You
might want to enable RIPng if you are an advanced user with a complex home network
configuration that requires dynamic routing.
9. (Optional) Select the Use This Interface ID check box and specify the interface ID
that you want to be used for the IPv6 address of the router's LAN interface.
If you do not specify an ID here, the router generates one automatically from its MAC
address.
10. (Optional) To set a specific MTU size for an IPv6 6rd tunnel Internet connection,
specify the MTU size in the MTU Size (in bytes) field.
11. Click the Apply button.
