1.2.6 IPv6 Support
IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), is designed to enhance IP address size and features. The increase in
IPv6 address size to 128 bits (from the 32-bit IPv4 address) allows up to 3.4 x 10
38
IP addresses. At the time
of writing, the Switch supports the following features.
• Static address assignment and stateless auto-configuration
• Neighbor Discovery Protocol (a protocol used to discover other IPv6 devices in a network)
• Remote Management using ping, SNMP, SSH, telnet, HTTP and FTP services
• ICMPv6 to report errors encountered in packet processing and perform diagnostic functions, such as
"ping”
• IPv4/IPv6 dual stack; the Switch can run IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time
• DHCPv6 client and relay
• Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) snooping and proxy
For more information on IPv6, refer to Appendix C on page 702 and the CLI Reference Guide.
1.3 Ways to Manage the Switch
Use any of the following methods to manage the Switch.
• NCC (Zyxel Nebula Control Center). With the NCC, you can remotely manage and monitor the
Switch through a cloud-based network management system. See the NCC User’s Guide for detailed
information about how to access the NCC and manage your Switch through the NCC. See the NCC
User’s Guide for how to configure Nebula managed devices.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the Switch using a (supported)
web browser. See Chapter 4 on page 58.
• Command Line Interface. Line commands offer an alternative to the Web Configurator and in some
cases are necessary to configure advanced features. See the CLI Reference Guide.
• FTP. Use File Transfer Protocol for firmware upgrades and configuration backup or restore. See Section
79.3.1 on page 605.
• SNMP. The Switch can be monitored and/or managed by an SNMP manager. See Section 26.6.1 on
page 198.
