Requirements For Entering Ipv6 Addresses; Use Auto Detect For An Ipv6 Internet Connection - NETGEAR Nighthawk RS700 User Manual

Requirements for entering IPv6 addresses

IPv6 addresses are denoted by eight groups of hexadecimal quartets that are separated
by colons. You can reduce any four-digit group of zeros within an IPv6 address to a
single zero or omit it.
All of the following examples specify the same IPv6 address:
• 2001:db8:0000:0000:020f:24ff:febf:dbcb
• 2001:db8:0:0:20f:24ff:febf:dbcb
• 2001:db8::20f:24ff:febf:dbcb
• 2001:db8:0:0:20f:24ff:128.141.49.32
The following errors invalidate an IPv6 address:
• More than eight groups of hexadecimal quartets
• More than four hexadecimal characters in a quartet
• More than two colons in a row
