Configure IPv6 Global Settings
You can configure IPv6 routing parameters for the switch, as opposed to an interface.
To configure IPv6 global settings:
1. Launch a web browser
.
2. In the address field of your web browser
, enter the IP address of the switch.
The login window opens.
3. Enter admin as the user name, enter your local device password,
and click the Login
button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must specify a
local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.
The System Information page displays.
4. Select Routing> IPv6 > Basic > Global Configuration.
5. In the IPv6 Unicast Routing field, select the option to globally Enable or Disable IPv6
unicast routing.
6. In the Hop Limit field, enter a value for the unicast hop count used in IPv6 packets
originated by the node.
The value is also included in router advertisements. The valid values for hops are 1 to
255, inclusive.
The default is Not Configured, which means that a value of zero is sent in
router advertisements.
7. In the ICMPv6 Rate Limit Error Interval field, specify the number of ICMP error packets
allowed per burst interval.
This value controls the ICMPv6 error packets. The default rate limit is 100 packets per
second, meaning that the burst interval is 1000 mseconds. To disable ICMP rate limiting,
set this field to 0. The valid rate interval must be in the range 0 to 2147483647 mseconds.
8. In the ICMPv6 Rate Limit Burst Size field, specify the number of ICMP error packets
allowed per burst interval.
