If the switch gets the IP address from DHCP server, you can see the configuration of the switch in the DHCP server; if DHCP option is selected but no DHCP server exists in the network, the switch will keep obtaining IP address from DHCP server until success. 4. If DHCP or BOOTP option is selected, the switch will get network parameters dynamically from the Internet, which means that its IP address, subnet mask and default gateway cannot be configured. 5. By default, the IP address is 192.168.0.1. 4.1.6 System IPv6 IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), also called IPng (IP next generation), was developed by the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) as the successor to IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4). Compared with IPv4, IPv6 increases the IP address size from 32 bits to 128 bits; this solves the IPv4 address exhaustion problem.  IPv6 features IPv6 has the following features: 1. Adequate address space: The source and destination IPv6 addresses are both 128 bits (16 bytes) long. IPv6 can provide 3.4 x 1038 addresses to completely meet the requirements of hierarchical address division as well as allocation of public and private addresses. 2. Header format simplification: IPv6 cuts down some IPv4 header fields or move them to IPv6 extension headers to reduce the load of basic IPv6 headers, thus making IPv6 packet handling simple and improving the forwarding efficiency. Although the IPv6 address size is four times that of IPv4 addresses, the size of basic IPv6 headers is 40 bytes and is only twice that of IPv4 headers (excluding the Options field). 3. Flexible extension headers: IPv6 cancels the Options field in IPv4 packets but introduces multiple extension headers. In this way, IPv6 enhances the flexibility greatly to provide scalability for IP while improving the handling efficiency. The Options field in IPv4 packets contains 40 bytes at most, while the size of IPv6 extension headers is restricted by that of IPv6 packets. 4. Built-in security: IPv6 uses IPSec as its standard extension header to provide end-to-end security. This feature provides a standard for network security solutions and improves the interoperability between different IPv6 applications. 5. Automatic address configuration: To simplify the host configuration, IPv6 supports stateful and stateless address configuration.  Stateful address configuration means that a host acquires an IPv6 address and related information from a server (for example, DHCP server).  Stateless address configuration means that a host automatically configures an IPv6 address and related information on basis of its own link-layer address and the prefix information advertised by a router. 17

The switch only possesses an IP address. The IP address configured will replace the original

IP address.

If the switch gets the IP address from DHCP server, you can see the configuration of the

switch in the DHCP server; if DHCP option is selected but no DHCP server exists in the

network, the switch will keep obtaining IP address from DHCP server until success.

If DHCP or BOOTP option is selected, the switch will get network parameters dynamically

be configured.

By default, the IP address is 192.168.0.1.

4.1.6 System IPv6

IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), also called IPng (IP next generation), was developed by the

IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) as the successor to IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4).

Compared with IPv4, IPv6 increases the IP address size from 32 bits to 128 bits; this solves the

IPv4 address exhaustion problem.



IPv6 features

IPv6 has the following features:

Adequate address space:

The source and destination IPv6 addresses are both 128 bits (16

bytes) long. IPv6 can provide 3.4 x 10

addresses to completely meet the requirements of

hierarchical address division as well as allocation of public and private addresses.

Header format simplification:

IPv6 cuts down some IPv4 header fields or move them to IPv6

extension headers to reduce the load of basic IPv6 headers, thus making IPv6 packet handling

simple and improving the forwarding efficiency. Although the IPv6 address size is four times

that of IPv4 addresses, the size of basic IPv6 headers is 40 bytes and is only twice that of IPv4

headers (excluding the Options field).

Flexible extension headers:

IPv6 cancels the Options field in IPv4 packets but introduces

multiple extension headers. In this way, IPv6 enhances the flexibility greatly to provide

scalability for IP while improving the handling efficiency. The Options field in IPv4 packets

contains 40 bytes at most, while the size of IPv6 extension headers is restricted by that of IPv6

packets.

Built-in security:

IPv6 uses IPSec as its standard extension header to provide end-to-end

security. This feature provides a standard for network security solutions and improves the

interoperability between different IPv6 applications.

Automatic address configuration:

To simplify the host configuration, IPv6 supports stateful

and stateless address configuration.



Stateful address configuration means that a host acquires an IPv6 address and related

information from a server (for example, DHCP server).



Stateless address configuration means that a host automatically configures an IPv6

address and related information on basis of its own link-layer address and the prefix

information advertised by a router.
