Chapter 8 Home Networking Table 28 Network Setting > Home Networking > LAN Setup (continued) LABEL EUI64 DESCRIPTION Select this to have the VMG generate an interface ID for the LAN interface's link-local address using the EUI-64 format. Manual Select this to manually enter an interface ID for the LAN interface's link-local address. Lan Global Identifier Type EUI64 Select this to have the VMG generate an interface ID using the EUI-64 format for its global address . Manual Select this to manually enter an interface ID for the LAN interface's global IPv6 address. LAN IPv6 Address Setup Delegate prefix Select this option to automatically obtain an IPv6 network prefix from the service provider from WAN or an uplink router. Static Select this option to configure a fixed IPv6 address for the VMG's LAN IPv6 address. MLD Snooping Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) allows an IPv6 switch or router to discover the presence of MLD hosts who wish to receive multicast packets and the IP addresses of multicast groups the hosts want to join on its network. Active Select Enable to activate MLD Snooping on the VMG. This allows the VMG to check MLD packets passing through it and learn the multicast group membership. It helps reduce multicast traffic. LAN IPv6 Address Assign Setup Select how you want to obtain an IPv6 address: • Stateless: The VMG uses IPv6 stateless autoconfiguration. RADVD (Router Advertisement Daemon) is enabled to have the VMG send IPv6 prefix information in router advertisements periodically and in response to router solicitations. DHCPv6 server is disabled. • Stateful: The VMG uses IPv6 stateful autoconfiguration. The DHCPv6 server is enabled to have the VMG act as a DHCPv6 server and pass IPv6 addresses to DHCPv6 clients. • Stateless and Stateful: The VMG uses both IPv6 stateless and stateful autoconfiguration. The LAN IPv6 clients can obtain IPv6 addresses either through router advertisements or through DHCPv6. LAN IPv6 DNS Assign Setup Select how the VMG provide DNS server and domain name information to the clients: • From Router Advertisement: The VMG provides DNS information through router advertisements. • From DHCPv6 Server: The VMG provides DNS information through DHCPv6. • From RA & DHCPv6 Server: The VMG provides DNS information through both router advertisements and DHCPv6. DHCPv6 Configuration DHCPv6 Active This shows the status of the DHCPv6. DHCPv6 Server displays if you configured the VMG to act as a DHCPv6 server which assigns IPv6 addresses and/or DNS information to clients. IPv6 Router Advertisement State RADVD Active This shows whether RADVD is enabled or not. IPv6 DNS Values IPv6 DNS Server 1-3 Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns IPv6 DNS server information. Select User-Defined if you have the IPv6 address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS server IPv6 addresses the VMG passes to the DHCP clients. Select None if you do not want to configure IPv6 DNS servers. VMG9823-B10A User's Guide 119

router advertisements periodically and in response to router solicitations. DHCPv6 server
is disabled.
Stateful
: The VMG uses IPv6 stateful autoconfiguration. The DHCPv6 server is enabled
to have the VMG act as a DHCPv6 server and pass IPv6 addresses to DHCPv6 clients.
Stateless and Stateful
: The VMG uses both IPv6 stateless and stateful
autoconfiguration. The LAN IPv6 clients can obtain IPv6 addresses either through router
advertisements or through DHCPv6.
LAN IPv6 DNS
Assign Setup
Select how the VMG provide DNS server and domain name information to the clients:
From Router Advertisement
: The VMG provides DNS information through router
advertisements.
From DHCPv6 Server
