Section 5 - Connect to the Internet

WAN Settings

Path: Network > IPv6 > WAN1 Settings

For IPv6 WAN connections, this router can have a static IPv6 address or receive connection information when

congured as a DHCPv6 client. In the case where the ISP assigns you a xed address to access the internet, the

static conguration settings must be completed. In addition to the IPv6 address assigned to your router, the

IPv6 prex length dened by the ISP is needed. The default IPv6 Gateway address is the server at the ISP that

this router will connect to for accessing the internet. The primary and secondary DNS servers on the ISP’s IPv6

network are used for resolving internet addresses, and these are provided along with the static IP address and

prex length from the ISP.

When the ISP allows you to obtain the WAN IP settings via DHCP, you need to provide details for the DHCPv6

client conguration. The DHCPv6 client on the gateway can be either stateless or stateful. If a stateful client is

selected the gateway will connect to the ISP’s DHCPv6 server for a leased address. For stateless DHCP there need

not be a DHCPv6 server available at the ISP, rather ICMPv6 discover messages will originate from this gateway

and will be used for auto conguration.

A third option to specify the IP address and prex length of a preferred DHCPv6 server is available as well.

To congure a dynamic (DHCP) IPv6 Internet connection:

1. Click Network > IPv6 > IPv6 WAN1 Settings.

2. Complete the elds in the table below and click Save.
