xStack® DGS-3400 Series Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Managed Switch IP Tunnel Settings The Switch supports IP tunneling. The idea behind this feature is to be able to integrate IPv6 into and coexist with existing IPv4 networks. It is expected that IPv4 and IPv6 hosts will need to coexist for a substantial time during the steady migration from IPv4 to IPv6, and the development of transition strategies, tools, and mechanisms has been part of the basic IPv6 design from the start. This IPv6 tunneling mechanism is one of D-Link's strategies for solving the transition from IPv4 to IPv6. To configure the settings, click Administration > IP Tunnel Settings, as shown below.
