Serial Port Profiles
IPv6 Local
Interface Identifier The local IPv6 interface identifier of the IOLAN end of the PPP link. For
routing to work, you must enter a local IP address. Choose an address that is
part of the same network or subnetw ork as the remote end. Do not use the
IOLAN’s (main) IP address in this field; if you do so, routing will not take
place correctly.
Field Format: The first 64 bits of the Interface Identifier must be zero,
therefore, ::abcd:abcd:abcd:abcd is the expected format.
IPv6 Remote
Interface Identifier The remote IPv6 interface identifier of the remote end of the PPP link. Choose
an address that is part of the same network or subnetwork as the IOLAN. If
you enable Negotiate IP Address Automatically, the IOLAN will ignore the
remote IP address value you enter here and will allow the remote end to
specify its IP address. If your user is authenticated by RADIUS and the
RADIUS parameter Framed-Interface-ID is set in the RADIUS file, the
IOLAN will use the value in the RADIUS file in preference to the value
configured here.
Field Format: The first 64 bits of the Interface Identifier must be zero,
therefore, ::abcd:abcd:abcd:abcd is the expected format.
IPv6 Global
Network Prefix You can optionally specify an IPv6 global network prefix that the IOLAN will
advertise to the device at the other end of the PPP link.
Default: 0:0:0:0
IPv6 Prefix Bits Specify the prefix bits for the IPv6 global network prefix.
Default: 64
