IPv6 Setup

When you are configuring the LAN or Wireless Network interface, click the IPv6 Setup button to change the IPv6 settings.

Synology DiskStation supports IPv4/IPv6 dual stack scheme. This means that both IPv4 and IPv6 can work simultaneously on Synology DiskStation. The default setting for IPv6 is Auto.1

On the IPv6 Setup page, choose between the different setup types:

Auto: DiskStation will automatically generate a local IPv6 address. This is generated based on DiskStation's MAC address.

DHCP: DiskStation will automatically get an IPv6 address from the DHCP server which supports IPv6.

Manual: Set up IPv6 manually by entering IPv6 address, Prefix length, and Default gateway.

Off: Disable IPv6 support.

Note: If you want to join an IPv4 network environment with IPv6 address, you need to enable IPv6 Tunnel. See the section below for more information.

---------

1IPv6 service is only supported on 08-series models or later (excluding 108j, 109j).
