Network Interface

Description

 

Settings (continued)

 

 

DHCPv6 Client

Select to turn On or Off. At bootup, after the physical link is up, the XPort Pro Lx6

 

 

will attempt to obtain IPv6 settings from a DHCPv6 server and will periodically

 

 

renew these settings with the server.

 

 

On: enables the XPort Pro Lx6 server to obtain IPv6 setting from a DHCPv6

 

 

server upon bootup.

 

 

Off: enables the XPort Pro Lx6 server to obtain IPv4 settings from a DHCP

 

 

server upon bootup.

 

 

Note: Overrides the configured IP address/mask, gateway, hostname, and

 

 

domain. Changing this value requires you to reboot the device. Within Web

 

 

Manager, click Renew to renew the DHCPV6 lease.

 

 

 

 

IPv6 AutoConf

Select to turn On or Off.

 

 

On: will provide an additional IPv6 addres in addition to the displayed Link Local

 

 

IPv6 address and DHCPv6 IPv6 address. This is the auto configuration address

 

 

provided by the IPv6 router.

 

 

Off: will not display auto configured IPv6 address in CLI or WebUI.

 

 

 

 

IPv6 Address

Enter the static IPv6 address to use for the interface.

 

 

Note: This setting is used if Static IPv6 is active (DHCPv6 is Disabled). Changing

 

 

this value requires a reboot. When DHCPv6 is enabled, the XPort Pro Lx6 tries to

 

 

obtain an IPv6 address from a DHCPv6 server. If it cannot, then XPort Pro Lx6

 

 

generates and uses a Link local IPv6 address.

 

 

 

 

IPv6 Default Gateway

Enter the default IPv6 Default Gateway.

 

 

 

 

Hostname

Enter the hostname for the interface. It must begin with a letter or number, continue

 

 

with a sequence of letters, numbers, or hyphens, and end with a letter or number.

 

 

This setting will take effect immediately, but will not register the hostname with a

 

 

DNS server until the next reboot.

 

 

 

 

Domain

Enter the domain name suffix for the interface.

 

 

Note: This setting will be used when either Static IP or Auto IP is active, or if

 

 

DHCP/BOOTP is active and no Domain Suffix was acquired from the server.

 

 

 

 

DHCP Client ID

Enter the ID if the DHCPV6 server requires a DHCPV6 Client ID option. The

 

 

DHCPV6 server’s lease table shows IP addresses and MAC addresses for

 

 

devices. The lease table shows the Client ID, in hexadecimal notation, instead of

 

 

the XPort Pro Lx6 MAC address.

 

 

 

 

Primary DNS

Enter the IP address of the primary Domain Name Server.

 

 

Note: This setting will be used when either Static IP or Auto IP is active, or if

 

 

DHCP/BOOTP is active and no DNS server was acquired from the server.

 

 

 

 

Secondary DNS

Enter the IP address of the secondary Domain Name Server.

 

 

Note: This setting will be used when either Static IP or Auto IP is active, or if

 

 

DHCP/BOOTP is active and no DNS server was acquired from the server.

 

 

 

 

MTU

When DHCP is enabled, the MTU size is (usually) provided with the IP address.

 

 

When not provided or using a static configuration, this value is used. The MTU

 

 

size can be from 1280 to 1500 bytes, the default being 1500 bytes.
