Operation Manual

SLAAC Only – SLAAC stands for stateless address autoconfiguration. The router regularly generates a router
advertisement that includes network prefix and routing information, allowing clients to autogenerate an address and
start communicating on the network. Clients utilize neighbor discovery protocols to ensure multiple clients on the
subnet have not chosen an identical address.
SLAAC with DHCP – (Default) IPv6 DHCP provides an additional client configuration method and is regularly
combined with SLAAC to provide DNS servers (a shortcoming in the original SLAAC specification) and additional
options not supported by SLAAC. By defaulting to SLAAC with DHCPv6, all IPv6-capable clients on the network
should be configurable with IPv6 connectivity.
DHCP Range Start: The beginning of the range that will be used for IPV6 DHCP addresses. The IPv6 range
will always start at 1.
DHCP Range End: The ending IP address in the DHCP Server range is the end of the reserved pool of IP
addresses that will be given to any DHCP-enabled computers on your network.
IPv6 DHCP Lease Time: This specifies how long DHCP-enabled computers will wait before requesting a new
DHCP lease.
Disable SLAAC and DHCP – Disable both IPv6 address configuration modes.
Multicast Proxy
IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) multicast proxy allows a single packet to reroute to multiple destinations
(see the Wikipedia explanation of multicast). This may be used for IPTV, for example.
