IPv6 LAN Address Pools
If you configure a stateful DHCPv6 server for the LAN, you need to add local DHCP IPv6
address pools so the DHCPv6 server can control the allocation of IPv6 addresses in the LAN.
 To add an IPv6 LAN address pool:
1. On
the LAN Setup screen for IPv6, under the List of IPv6 Address Pools table, click
Add. The LAN IPv6 Config screen displays:
DHCP Status
(continued)
Server Preference Enter the DHCP server preference value. The possible values
are 0–255, with 255 as the default setting.
This is an optional setting that specifies the server’s preference
value in a server advertise message. The client selects the
server with the highest preference value as the preferred server.
DNS Servers Select one of the DNS server options from the drop-down lists:
• Us
e DNS Proxy. The wireless VPN firewall acts as a proxy for
all DNS requests and communicates with the ISP’s DNS
servers that you configured on the Broadband ISP Settings
(IPv6) screen (see Configure a Static IPv6 Internet Connection
on page 39).
• Use DN
S from ISP. The wireless VPN firewall uses the ISP’s
DNS servers that you configured on the Broadband ISP
Settings (IPv6) screen (see Configure a Static IPv6 Internet
Connection on p
age 39).
• Use below. When you select this option, the DNS server fields
become available for you to enter IP addresses.
Primary DNS Server Enter the IP address of the primary
DNS server.
Secondary DNS Server Enter the IP address of the secondary
DNS server.
Lease/Rebind Time Enter the period after which the DHCP lease is renewed with the
original DHCP server or rebound with another DHCP server to
extend the existing DHCP lease. The default period is
86400 seconds (24 hours).
