CN8600 User Manual

IPv6

At present, the CN8600 supports two IPv6 address protocols: Link Local IPv6 Address, and IPv6 Stateless Autoconfiguration

Link Local IPv6 Address

At power on, the CN8600 is automatically configured with a Link Local IPv6 Address (for example, fe80::210:74ff:fe61:1ef). To find out what the Link Local IPv6 Address is, log in with the CN8600’s IPv4 address and click the Basic Setting icon. The address is displayed at the bottom of the Basic Setting page (see page 22).

Once you have determined what the IPv6 address is, you can use it when logging in from a browser or the Win and Java Client AP programs.

For example:

If you are logging in from a browser, you would key in

http://[fe80::2001:74ff:fe6e:59%5]

for the URL bar.

If you are logging in with the AP program, you would key:

fe80::2001:74ff:fe6e:59%5

for the IP field of the Server panel (see The Windows Client Connection Screen, page 92).

Note: 1. To log in with the Link Local IPv6 Address, the client computer must be on the same local network segment as the CN8600

2.The %5 is the %interface used by the client computer. To see your client computer’s IPv6 address: from the command line issue the following command: ipconfig /all. The % value appears at the end of the IPv6 address.
