4. Specify how the modem router assigns IPv6 addresses to the devices on your home
network (the LAN) by selecting one of the following radio buttons:

Auto Config. This is the default setting.
5. (Optional) Select the Use This Interface ID check box, and specify the interface ID that you

Secured. In the secured mode, which is the default mode, the modem router inspects
both TCP and UDP packets.
