Ipv6 Pass Through - NETGEAR Nighthawk R7000 User Manual

The router automatically detects the information in the Router's IPv6 Address on LAN
field. This field shows the IPv6 address that is acquired for the router's LAN 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. Configure the remote 6to4 relay router settings by selecting one of the following radio
buttons:
• Auto. Your router uses any remote relay router that is available on the Internet. This is
the default setting.
• Static IP Address. Enter the static IPv4 address of the remote relay router. Your IPv6
ISP usually provides this address.
7. Specify how the router assigns IPv6 addresses to the devices on your home network (the
LAN) by selecting one of the following radio buttons:
• 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.
8. (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.
9. Click the Apply button.
