Serial Port Profiles

IPv6 Local

The local IPv6 interface identifier of the IOLAN end of the PPP link. For

Interface Identifier

routing to work, you must enter a local IP address. Choose an address that is

 

part of the same network or subnetwork 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

The remote IPv6 interface identifier of the remote end of the PPP link. Choose

Interface Identifier

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-IDis 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

You can optionally specify an IPv6 global network prefix that the IOLAN will

Network Prefix

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
