AC1600 WiFi VDSL/ADSL Modem Router Model D6400 The modem router automatically detects the information in the Router's IPv6 Address On LAN field. This field shows the IPv6 address that is acquired for the modem router's LAN interface. The number after the slash (/) is the length of the prefix, which is also indicated by the underline (_) under the IPv6 address. 7. Select a Remote 6to4 Relay Router radio button: • Auto. Your modem router uses any remote relay modem router that is available on the Internet. This is the default setting. • Static IP Address. Enter the static IPv4 (not IPv6) address of the remote relay modem router. Your IPv6 ISP usually provides this address. 8. Select an IPv6 Domain Name Server (DNS) Address radio button: • Get Automatically from ISP. The ISP's DHCP server automatically assigns IPv6 DNS server addresses. • Use These DNS Servers. Enter the static IPv6 (not IPv4) DNS server addresses that your ISP provided to you. 9. Select an IP Address Assignment radio button: • Use DHCP Server. The modem router assigns IPv6 addresses to the devices on your home network (the LAN) through a DHCP server. This method passes more information to LAN devices, but some IPv6 systems might not support the DHCPv6 client function. This is the default setting. • Auto Config. The modem router automatically configures its IPv6 address based on the IPv6 protocol. 10. To specify the interface ID for the IPv6 address of the modem router's LAN interface, select the Use This Interface ID check box, and enter the interface ID. If you do not specify an ID here, the modem router generates one automatically from its MAC address. 11. Click the Apply button. Your settings are saved. Set Up an IPv6 Pass-Through Connection In IPv6 pass-through mode, the modem router works as a Layer 2 Ethernet switch with two ports (LAN and WAN Ethernet ports) for IPv6 packets. The modem router does not process any IPv6 header packets. Note: Follow the directions that your IPv6 ISP gave you. To set up an IPv6 pass-through Internet connection: 1. Launch an Internet browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the network. 2. Type http://www.routerlogin.net. A login screen displays. Manage the Internet Settings Manually 77
