IPv6 Internet connection settings

IPv6 is a new IP protocol that uses simplified packet headers and requires IPSec. It also has improved support for mobile IP and computing devices.

Note

To use your router’s IPv6 Internet connection settings, IPv6 service from your ISP (Internet service provider) is required. For more information on this service, ask your ISP.

To manually configure your router’s IPv6 settings:

1.Use an Ethernet cable to connect an Ethernet port on your router to the Ethernet port on your computer.

2.Log into Cisco Connect Cloud. (See “How to configure your router” on page 11.

3.Under Router Settings, click Connectivity. The Connectivity page opens.

4.Click the Internet Settings tab, then click IPV6.

Setting Up: Advanced

5.Click Edit. You can now change the following settings:

••IPv6 - Automatic—Select Enabled to use IPv6 for all network addressing.

••DUID (device user ID)—Used by DHCP to identify network clients.

••6rd Tunnel—Allows your router to send IPv6 IP addresses over IPv4 networks. To enable this option, IPv6 - Automatic must be unselected. To let your router handle the 6rd Tunnel settings (such as prefixes and address masks), change the 6rd tunnel setting to Automatic. Select Manual to change these settings manually.

••Prefix—Enter the prefix address used for the tunnel provided by your ISP.

••Prefix Length—Enter the prefix length used for the tunnel provided by your ISP.

••Border Relay—Enter the border relay address used for the tunnel provided by your ISP.

••IPv4 mask length—Enter the IPv4 address mask length used for the tunnel provided by your ISP.
