Table 4-6 TCP/IP(v6) tab (continued) Item Description To set the DHCPv6 policy, select one of the following: ■ Perform DHCPv6 only when requested by a router: (default) Allow the router to control stateful addressing. ■ Perform DHCPv6 when stateless configuration is unsuccessful: Attempt to use DHCPv6 if stateless addressing by a router fails. ■ Always perform DHCPv6 on startup: The print server should always attempt DHCPv6 for configuration each time it is powered on. If DHCPv6 is used for stateful addressing, the addresses (and associated prefixes) configured on the print server will be listed. Manual Address Use this section to manually configure an IPv6 address on the print server, and to enable or disable the address. Check the Enable checkbox to enable an IPv6 address that has been manually configured. Clear this checkbox to disable the address, which is the default setting. Use the Address and Prefix lengthfields to enter an IPv6 address and its prefix length. If IPv6 address prefixes (for example, supplied by a router) have been stored on the print server, you can select a prefix from the Prefix field, and then click Add to copy the prefix into the Address field. Then enter the remainder of the address. Config Precedence This page is used to specify the methods of print server configuration that take precedence over other configuration methods. For example, if a network administrator wants to ensure that IPv4 parameters configured by a TFTP server cannot be overwritten through a manual configuration method (such as the printer control panel, Telnet, or embedded Web server), the administrator can use this page to indicate that TFTP takes precedence over manual configuration. The factory-default precedence order is indicated below.

Description
To set the DHCPv6 policy, select one of the following:
Perform DHCPv6 only when requested by a router
: (default) Allow the router
to control stateful addressing.
Perform DHCPv6 when stateless configuration is unsuccessful
: Attempt to
use DHCPv6 if stateless addressing by a router fails.
Always perform DHCPv6 on startup
: The print server should always attempt
DHCPv6 for configuration each time it is powered on.
If DHCPv6 is used for stateful addressing, the addresses (and associated prefixes)
configured on the print server will be listed.
Manual Address
Use this section to manually configure an IPv6 address on the print server, and to
enable or disable the address.
Check the
Enable
checkbox to enable an IPv6 address that has been manually
configured. Clear this checkbox to disable the address, which is the default setting.
Use the
Address
and
Prefix length
fields to enter an IPv6 address and its prefix
length. If IPv6 address prefixes (for example, supplied by a router) have been stored
on the print server, you can select a prefix from the
Prefix
field, and then click
Add
to copy the prefix into the
Address
field. Then enter the remainder of the address.
Config Precedence
This page is used to specify the methods of print server configuration that take precedence over
other configuration methods. For example, if a network administrator wants to ensure that IPv4
parameters configured by a TFTP server cannot be overwritten through a manual configuration
method (such as the printer control panel, Telnet, or embedded Web server), the administrator can
use this page to indicate that TFTP takes precedence over manual configuration.
The factory-default precedence order is indicated below.
